    Why do you think the major news outlets seem to be pushing those issues? It's really what is most important im many voter's minds. Most people vote from gut reaction.

    Actually, the average American doesn't even vote.

    Which makes me rather happy, really. If I could get the voting turnout down to say... oh, ONE, I would be ecstatic!

    YES!!!! I have been, for the longest time, been a strong advocate of getting people not to vote. I would especially like to see it in poor, uneducated areas where the average IQ and level of political literacy is especially limited. Had I the means to do so, I would love to run a "Stay home and watch a movie" campaign. East Cleveland has plenty of people who should be doing that.

    Amen, brother!

    You wanna know why I stopped watching MTV? (seriously, I haven't turned the channel on in YEARS)

    The fucking "Turn out the Vote" bullshit. We need your campaign, and big time.

    Let's target the churches first. Tell them that what happens in this life is not important. To not concern themselves in Earthly affairs. That God has a plan, and we must just sit back and let His will be done.

    After we get the idiots on the right staying home, we will make the day before the election a National Drinking Holiday, like Cinco de Mayo, or St. Patty's Day. We will make it "free joint day", and take care of the Left!

    Ahhh.... what a brilliant fucking plan!
