I'm not voting for either one, I think.

Posted by: wroberson on Sep 01, 08:32 in response to mike255's post Obama Or Romney? Who would vote for? I wish Hsx this is...

I should really vote my conscious, but it's a difficult choice.

Do I vote for a guy who keeps his money in offshore accounts to avoid paying taxes on the interest he would have earned if his money was in an American Bank? What's wrong with American banks? I can imagine trillions of tax dollars just on interest from the total amount of American's money in offshore banks. Easily enough to build a few roads, put up a few stop signs. It's not just him, it's EVERYONE in the 1%. The same group that's complaining about all the wasted tax dollars. There's the LIBOR fundraiser in the UK. Net loss of American jobs vs. Overseas jobs. The cult.

Then you have the foreign exchange student who once said, while running from Senate, "so what, I'm not running for President". He wasn't born here and has no right to be President. Sure, the birth certificate is REAL, but who did he get it? I can't blame him for that, Congress let it slide. No one stepped in during the campaign to say, you can run for the office, but you can't be President. My conscious won't let me vote for a non AMerican to be the President of the United States. I have more right to the job than he does.

I just can't comes to terms on these two, and Gary Johnson the 3rd party guy is no Ross Perot.

Obama Or Romney? Who would vote for? I wish Hsx this is Props {nm} mike255 Aug 31, 06:49

On this board, it's about 85% Obama. Very insular; not a slice of the real world. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Aug 31, 07:38

Any guess as to why that is? {nm} PRodNano Aug 31, 09:53

Sure. But, I don't find it productive to state, nor to argue politics here. I'm satisfied to note that people in an echo chamber get a false edzep - Port Monkey! Aug 31, 10:15

Sorry, but who's to say your reality is more real than someone else's reality. {nm} Antibody Aug 31, 11:11

Isn't that obvious? There's not a single poll that shows Obama at 85%, and, time will tell the rest. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Aug 31, 11:25

85% is your made up number. HSX may lean more of a Blue State, but that doesn't mean it's less of a reality than if it leaned Red State. {nm} Antibody Aug 31, 11:37

Show your math! Where did you get the 85% number that you subsequently admit is arbitrary. BSmurf Aug 31, 11:47

Your IM echoes almost exactly what I think. I wish I had another choice. Once again I'll be voting for the candidate I dislike less. {nm} JDolphin Aug 31, 11:53

Yeah, I saw that after watching the GOP national convention. Will probably see it during the DNC as well. PRodNano Aug 31, 13:58
