I tend on this subject to keep how I vote to myself. I will crack jokes about each politican in public. Bill Clinton and Richard Nixon are tro prime examples of this.
Do you try to get other people to see your way or do you try and keep it to yourself in order not to offend people

I dislike politics. I have very little faith in those who seek office.

The way I see it, if we're talking about a major election then you have to vote against the crazy religious candidate.
If everyone decides they don't care since it's so messed up then chances are the craziest one will get it. That's usually because these people stick together and they make an effort to push thier agendas.
Take our current US election. Do we really want a president who is ok with teaching creationism in schools?(McCain)

You mean you think she's hot? I really don't see why people say that. Maybe I'm just distracted by how much of a failure she is. Btw she thinks creationism in schools is good. She's against abortion for any reason(rape/incest too although she's bending on that one).
Not to mention she has so little experience in politics it's not funny. She's a joke. They picked her because she's a woman who has the same views as the religious nut jobs who'll vote for McCain. If McCain dies in office we'll have an inexperienced, religious nutjob soccermom for a president. I might just move to canada.

I disagree, Tails. I don't think McCain made a great choice with Palin. She hardly has any experience. If McCain dies in office, which, at his age, and given the stressful conditions of the position, isn't a far-fetched possibility, I wouldn't feel comfortable with her running the country.
It really sucks to be a cynical centrist. This will be my first chance at voting in a presidential race, and I believe both candidates to be too extreme. I think I'm just going to vote for a third party candidate.

Tails she's under investigation for abusing her powers. She's only been in charge for a year and a half. Also she supports Oil companies drilling in the reservation areas. Believe me, she's not a good person to lead the US. McCain may not be horrible but she sure is. At least he seems to just be lieing, she seems actually crazy.

My my, this topic actually became good when Dudebro showed up. So basically since she fired her butlers and maids, sold the jet on ebay and put back in alaska shes a bad person? Or when she abused her powers to get a state trooper fired? Just saying she cleaned up Alaska isn't enough. The people before may have been corrupt but just because shes less corrupt doesn't mean she's good. But, my main reason to hate her is the creationism thing. If that ever got accepted in schools across the country I WOULD move out of the country. It's a scary thing to hear a potential world leader say they believe in that nonsense. Sorry if that offends anyone here but it's the truth to most people.

creationism is that god created life ritht? and she did? Creationism is that god created earth in 6 days and rested on the 7th basically. They throw out what we know from fossil records and other scientific research and cling to the belief that god just made us one a day in his image. Like they think the earth is only like 6thousand years old. Which we know is way off. Basically it's trying to pass off religion as science. They use the excuse that evolution is a theory so it can't disprove creationism. But they have 0 proof of creationism where evolution has years of research and proven methods to back it up. They want it taught in schools along side science. Even alot of religious people don't agree with that. They know you can't take the bible literally too.
