I’ll be voting third party like I usually do. The last time I voted for either a Democrat or Republican for President was when I voted for Bill Clinton in 1996. I was pulling for Ross Perot in 1992 (although I will always love George HW Bush), but I was turning 16 that December, so I couldn’t vote in that election.
Exercising my constitutional right as I see fit is not “throwing my vote away”. If more people actually had the guts to tell both parties to go fuck themselves, we may actually see real change.
3 times.
Yeah, exacty. Get back to me when he triumphs over toe nail fungus.
Well, he answered all the questions. What more can you ask?
I was wondering the same thing.
There's no comparison between the two.
Besides just individual comportment, why was HW so much better?
At the risk of categorizing this as behaviour-related, I would think HW's lack of self-serving policies is the biggest thing.
Well I get the idea that two candidates could be different degrees of unacceptably bad.
HW was a war hero and an economist. He also wisely opposed Reaganomics, which were terrible for the country and led to two recessions, one of which was very bad. Yes, he raised taxes (which is why I supported Perot), but he refused to make Saddam Hussein a martyr by having him killed and further disrupting the Middle East. He was willing to put the country’s best interests ahead of his own, even though he knew it would end his political career. He was a man if integrity. Trump is not.
