    that is fine... but I find nothing wrong with trying to explain to people that... people who spend millions of borrowed money to convince you to like them are fraudulent... are running with other intentions and WILL DO ANYTHING... ANYTHING for control..


    this is reality.

    we just have to convince enough people that the ballot has more than 2 names on it.. No change or whatever the hell they are high on is gonna take place until there is cooperation within our government.

    if these candidates really want change.. why are they running under old parties???

    it makes absolutely no sense... ITS unimaginative... you think this is how its going to be forever... we are fucked if these 2 parties get elected


    they are the same

    The year 2000 called. They wanted to remind you how GREAT the last time Nader supporters called the two parties the same worked out for us...

    .

    no offense, but if that's your point...no shit. Of course politicians will do anything for control and for power and for their own ego. Anyone who'd be willing to go through the political process, and drag a family with them through it, has some serious issues. Why on earth would you spend millions upon millions of dollars on a job that pays 400K a year? power, control, ego are the only things that come to mind.

    First off.. Im not a Nader supporter and im not trying to sell a candidate to you. In fact I may even write in Monty Brewster... that being said.. if you are making a reference to the fact that many of your fellow republicans or democrats may have told you those who voted for nader or nader running cost al gore that election... well its 2008

    and there are records and it is now known fact that the democrats lost that election because of ridiculous tactics, just like in 2004 when they elected a horse and just like they are doing now in 2008.. they are poor tacticians... but thats still not the argument.. statistics from the elections will you show you thousands voted for the nazi party... people voted for independent candidates... green candidates.. and many other independents... I CAN GET THE LIST IF YOU NEED IT.

    ITS BRAINWASHING

    I have to wonder, what is NOT brainwashing...?

    campaigning is sharing views and hoping to earn votes...no one is making you vote for anyone...therefore, I disagree with your notion that brainwashing is happening...

    My whole point is that this has all been said before and it turned out to be FALSE by the actions of the current Republican administration.

    Due to that I don't trust third party candidates as having the best interest for the country.

    And I actually am a centrist myself and enjoyed the Clinton years and am planning on enjoying the Obama years.

    You can say I'm brainwashed but I don't really care. I think third party supporters do just as much brainwashing to get people to see there viewpoint.

    no you are wrong... brainwashing is happening... democrats and republicans for years have been engaging in ''disinformation''. they are taking advantage of struggling voters in a weak economy by telling them change is near... change is near.. and the republicans are telling you... we arent like that guy anymore... change is near..

    its brainwashing... they are telling you what change... whos gonna change... are things gonna get greener..


    IN FACT the only commercials to be found on Television that contain change are from an old oil tycoon named pickens... whos voting for that change??


    wind power sounds pretty fucking good to me... thats change


    NOT SAYING THINGS ARE GONNA CHANGE


    anyone can say it

    America is asleep. You try and wake people up and generally they just get angry. Maybe they just don't wanna believe they could be deceived so badly. Or maybe people just enjoy the comfort of the illusion so much they don't wanna believe. The vast majority have sold their souls for shiny cars, cell phones, houses with yards and a boob tube to alert them of what they can get for just a little more apathy.

    based on your logic, you're attempting to brainwash me and others here....

    I suppose you think it's ok for you to share some information based on your perspective and expect others to believe you but it's not ok for anyone who thinks differently from you to share their views because it's brainwashing...
