If he wasn't black, Hillary would have won the nomination. Not everyone who votes for him does so because he is black, but there are enough people for whom this is the only reason they want him in office. If he was white, keeping all the other characteristics and qualifications constant, there is no way he would have this much support. Answered by Maggie G - Tue Sep 9 00:16:15 2008 What is the point of voting if you don't vote for a Democrat or a Republican? Q. I am not very political, but it seems as if ones votes would pretty much be wasted if they were not for either a Dem or a Repub. What is the point of voting independent, etc? Asked by sunspear11 - Sun Jan 3 20:03:43 2010 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well they sometimes take enough votes away that one party doesn't win. Supposedly Gore lost due to Ralph Nader and his party. If you notice the last three times the different parties got booted out due to crummy performance and the people got sick of what they were doing. The Democrats get booted and then the Republicans get booted and now looks like the Democrats are about to get the boot again. Due to the "good ole boy" system and payoff deals and the money the two big time parties have it would be hard for someone to step up. When Ross Perot ran Clinton got 40 million votes and bush a few less, but he got 20 million, which were votes meant for the Republicans and he had the money on his own the run on. Maybe someday it will happen. [cont.] Answered by R J - Sun Jan 3 21:42:50 2010 Is voting for a third party candidate a wasted vote?
Q. I don't truly support either of the candidates this year, but I do think one of them is the 'lesser of two evils'. My friend keeps telling me to vote for that one instead of possibly going third party, because he says a third party vote is a wasted vote. Thoughts?

And definitely a better choice of candidates... STUPID statement "lesser of two evils" is still an EVIL... Why follow the crowd???
