Subsim Presidential Election

Neither. Like our candidates, none of them have thoughts beyond their own office. Romney is more of the same old, and Obama has just idled throughout most his time in office.

No vote, but election boycott instead of making the ballot unvalid. Keep the turnout low - making a ballot invalid still helps pushing up the turnout.

Not according to the Comment is Free section of the Guardian website he hasn't. From what I can gather, Old Barry has spent the last four years flying over Pakistan on the back of a drone and personally killing Taleban children with his bare teeth. Who knew? He looks so bookish!

I vote for the Buna-Steed ticket too.

Or maybe this guy.....

unfortunately, once again I find myself in the position of voting against a candidate instead of voting for a candidate.

Justice party, if only he had a VP called Bullwinkle it would really seal the deal.

However I have a back up candidate if needed:

and if all else fails:

you only need 2 poll options

1) More of the same
2) Third party

I cant vote what with being Brit

. but if I were an American, I'd sure not be voting for Obamney, right now I'd be backing Ron Paul (until he gets the boot at Tampa) then I geuss I'd go third party. Id vote for ANYONE other than Robama, those two idiots will just administer 'more of the same' until America cant take it anymore. One of them will win (which one is totally irrelivent), but least i could say i had no part in it.

What are the requirements for voting in the States? My GF has her US passport but has never lived there. I take it there are residency requirements?

Lol..

...well I just asked her and although she is a US citizen she is apparently not allowed to vote. I guess she's stuck with our pillocks instead.

I voted for Obama last time because I couldn't stand Bush and McCain with Palin.....4 more years of Bush with the dumbest VP in history. I will cringe with I vote for Obama this time, can't vote for an out of touch elitist with a $500 haircut who believes Joseph Smith had an angel direct him to a buried book written on {what else} golden plates and he was able to translate them into a book. You can't grow up in such a radical fundy system without it effecting how you govern and Romney has proven he is ready to push spiritual morality over the constitution.

It won't much matter in the end anyway....shame we all have to cringe when we vote.

Onkel Neal · 06-03-12, 10:20 PM

I don't like either of the choices that much, but.... wait, what? My vote shows Romney, I meant to vote for Obama. Argghh... this ballot is too complicated!!

kraznyi_oktjabr · 06-04-12, 07:13 AM

I would vote Ron Paul. I don't agree with him in many things but still he is better than Obama or Romney (or Robama as someone said...).

EDIT: Not most, MANY
