and dammit, you discovered my secret identity. :)
anyways, i didn't vote last time. i didn't understand politics well enough to care. at the time, i was under the impression that the u.s. government has ALL Americans' best interests in mind, and thus didn't see the need to vote. my ignorance told me that if both guys will do what's best for ALL Americans, then who cares which one gets in?
boy was i mistaken. it took a lot of research, after seeing 5 Americans decide who's president, to find out the historical difference of the parties, their track records, and which Americans benefit when a certain party is in the whitehouse. and other tidbits, like how lobbying is actually legalized bribery.
too bad the rino's aren't doing their research.
