Choseing to be a part of the silent majority

Choseing to be a part of the silent majority
I'm very disappointed in the choices we have for our general election. Trump and Hillary are both equally horrible choices on a equal scale, he is a bigoted reality T.V star who wants to turn the U.S into a play. A play that is written, directed, and starred in by Trump. He is quite similar to Caligula, which scares the hell out of me. Hillary lacks what it takes cause of the fact she supports the N.S.A (http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/arch...ng/386024/) as well, her donor list is quite scary as well, (https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/...cle=Career). That's a lot of money and that money always comes with some nasty strings attached to it. As far as third party candidates are concerned, they are quite weak and stand little to no chance against Trump's or Hillary's financial backing. I'm staying home in November, how about you?

Other people are running for all kinds of offices beside the Presidency. Vote for some of those dummies and crooks.

Not risking Donald Trump making 3+ supreme court nominations for a generation.

This staying home bullshit is dumber than Trump. Local/State/Federal elections are still on the line. You don't just go to vote for President.

That is quite true Wyrd, there is a lot of those on some states tickets. If only there was a option to vote for the new laws and bypass the presidential questions. My state does not have the option which sucks.

      Hillary choosing the 3+ supreme court nominations would be equally as bad. I don't trust that womans judgment at all, if it was Warren running for president I'd be voting. She is much more level headed the Hillary.

What? She's a liberal. She'd choose liberal/moderate leaning judges. She's beholden to the Democratic party, and she'd be the incumbent for re-election.

You are just intentionally dense. You have literally no idea what you're talking about.

You don't have to vote for President; just ignore that section.

          My mom tried that last election and the voting computer would not let her bypass the section. I'm not sure if it was glitch or if it's required by my state's law that you have to vote for a presidential candidate.

So vote for Howard Dean or write in Bernie Sanders
