    I will vote third party. Granted they may not win a Presidential election but atleast I am taking some action saying I am against the status quo.

    when you vote 3rd you are throwing your vote away. the lesser evil has a shot.

    How am I throwing my vote away if I vote for someone I feel comfortable voting for? The purpose of voting is not to try to pick the winner, but pick someone you want to fill the position.

    Kucinich was on Bill Maher last night.

    I think he's just a front put up by the Illuminati to see how many people out there actually believe life on Earth is "interconnected" and we should strive for "unity". He seems a little to straight edge to really believe some of the things he says.

    He definatley has my support though.

    He said last night that since he's been vegan he has had perfect blood pressure, and endless amounts of energy...Bill Maher replied, what in bed???

    simple he (as of yet) will not win. i saw the show, and he seems like someone i would vote for, but not enough people back him. if enough ppl back him up where he has over, say 35% in the poles then i would conder it. and then i say vote for him in the poles in till it is this high and if it does not get that high than do not vote for him. if you feel comfortable than do it but i could not intill he was backed up a little more.

    As for a 3rd party vote being thrown away - I live in Minnesota, and (regretfully) voted for Jesse Ventura as state governor, a 3rd party candidate several years back. And guess what, he won. WHY did I vote for him? I felt he was the lesser of 3 evils at the time. Sure wish I could take THAT vote back now! But yeah, a 3rd party candidate does have a chance these days... especially if enough people backing them are vocal about it!

    I did take a peek at Kuchinik & his position on key issues. Unfortunately I don't feel that I can support him. I disagree with his opinion on far too many issues that I feel strongly about.
    love,
    mom

    if they are vocal and people WILL vote for them and KNOW WHO THEY ARE then vote for whoever. BUT if it is someone who has 10% in the poles, and when you talk to someone about them and they say "who is that" DO NOT VOTE FOR THEM. in short BE AS VOCAL IS YOU CAN if you want them in. that is why i am going to be a political science major in college and then i will be voting for MYSELF who has all issues i agree with ALL THE TIME.
    i will also not be a third party cause you need the one party voters

    Just for the record...I never claimed the sole reason I would vote for the guy was because of his diet. In fact, if you check out his campaign goals the stuff about veganism is almost nonexistant...but it does tell me a lot about the dude's character, and after looking over all of his views I have found that he is a great person and a model candidate.

    Peace!

    I'd vote for Kucinich, but not because he's a vegan.
