Better candidates. And more political parties/choices.

I see Trump as the closest to my views (I think he's in the center when not catering to retards). He's pretty ridiculous, but at least he would be entertaining.
Anyways, I live in WA, so why would I even waste my time. It's going to be blue regardless of my vote 100% of the time.
Convince me otherwise......

Actually, with your extreme views, it is best you not vote. Not all folks are equipped to vote. It does take time and research to do it properly for the good of the Republic. Thank you for your null-service!!

I've voted in every presidential election since the ratification of the 26th Amendment. Frankly, I don't know what greater impetuous one needs to vote other than the fact that you have the right to.

Sorry, but my views are the majority. I'm a moderate. It probably just doesn't register to you because you got suckered into playing for a team.

Haha.

Is Kokesh still planning on running?

If so you and I may cast our first ballots ever!
