[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [QUOTE]The problem with voting for minor parties is that, pragmatically speaking, they're not going to win. I have no reservations about predicting that Bob Barr will not be the next president of the US. Now, if doesn't matter to you who wins, then that's fine. Vote for anyone you feel like, and the eventual outcome won't make any difference to you. But, as I see it, there's a major substantive difference between John McCain and Barack Obama. If McCain becomes president, the country will almost certainly continue the way it has for the past 7.5 years. Some of the current problems could become all but irreversible, especially given the imminent open seats on the Supreme Court.[/QUOTE]While true, it's also important to note that the President is not supposed to run the country single-handedly. It's not just the Presidential election I'm talking about, it's almost the entirety of Congress that needs to be replaced. We need a Congress that will stand up to the President when he's wrong, no matter what parties are involved. If you still feel the need to vote for Obama, you can still consider voting third party or independent for other offices. [/QB][/QUOTE]
