Vote or Don't Vote?

Some Americans will be voting for the next President of The United States in November, 2008. Some will not! For those that will be voting, please be aware of the the issues, research the candidates and know what they stand for!

I get very ANGRY when someone tells me who they are voting for, but they can't tell me why they are voting for them. Why vote for someone if you don't know what he or she stands for?

Electing the President of The United States is an important decision that everyone should take seriously. Please do not vote for a candidate based on what Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, or any other media corporation says about one candidate or the other. Voting without knowledge is worse than not voting at all. I disagree with the statement,"If you don't vote you can't complain." I do not believe in picking the lesser of the two evils, because I would still be picking an evil.

All voters should be required to take a test before they are eligable to cast their vote. The test should be multiple choice and some true / false, covering questions and answers about each candidate. I believe that requiring a test would cause more people to educate themselves, resulting in a better election. That is, if our vote even counts?
