You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. Getting out to vote for a corrupt candidate isn't going to change anything either. The political cesspool will still be corrupt either way. Why bother with the aggravation. You're screwed either way, unless you know of an untarnished politician. Stay home. Eat, drink, and be merry. Leave the corruption to the sheep who vote in crooked politicians.

Yeah, like I said, I'm unsure how doing nothing will change anything. I've got a son, I'm rather interested in seeing that he inherits a nation worth having, and I don't think surrendering to the status quo is a viable option.

Asking for an untarnished politician is unrealistic. You're a Christian who believes all men are flawed, yet you insist on "untarnished" politicians? Of course we don't want to vote in corrupt politicians ... but I don't think all are corrupt.

Some folks pick up the fiddle when they see the city burning; others pick up a bucket of water.

Both parties need people to come out and vote.  

What needs to happen is that people need to stop considering Republicans and Democrats as the only options. Until the chokehold the two parties have on governance is broken, nothing will change.
