An appeal to any / all 3rd party voters. [View All]

[darknemus]

Hi there! You don't know me, but let me give you an idea of who I am. I'm a guy who, like you, thinks politics is a nightmare.. sometimes the lesser of two evils, all politicans lie, etc, etc. I know what it's like to feel disillusioned by the two party system, and I believe in your right to 'vote your conscience' - I really do. I'm alot like you in that way. I'm all for alternative energy sources, dont drill in the Arctic - lets not go to war unless we abslolutely freaking have to, etc, etc.

However, in November, 2004..things are going to be TIGHT to state the least. Any of us (and I mean ANY of us) who can't deal with the current status quo. The lies, the manipulations, the pure EVIL of this administration need to make a hard choice, and in some cases, a sacrifice.

If the 'ABB' concept is one that you truly believe in - then you can't afford to toss even one vote towards a guy like Nader or any other 3rd party candidate. Look, I like Ralph - he's a cool guy.. a bit extreme in some of his views.. but heck, we all are with some of ours.. so its good. I think he would actually make a good EPA director or something along those lines.

What the 3rd parties SHOULD do (in my opinion) is, once the Democratic party nominee is decided, is lobby for cabinet positions, lobby for influence, lobby for their platform to take on some sort of integration within the Democratic platform. If there was ever a time for unity & inclusion, even in the face of different ideologies, this is it. Right here, right now.

I IMPLORE you, if you're considering voting 3rd party this Presidential Election.. don't. You could set your own movement back another 4 years and continue the downward spiral this country is in right now.

We need to ALL unite against this Administration - we need this to be ugly, dirty politics, partisan, and anything else it takes to 'defeat the opposition' - and the opposition is Shrub, its NOT each other. We can have our lesser (and they are lesser.. sorry.. but they are..maybe not 10 years from now.. but right now, they are) arguments over the issues November 6th, 2004.
