Well Im a proud Canadian..But If I was an American Id have to go with Kerry.
Not because I think he would make a good president..But because I think Bush is going to start world war 3...

Has anyone seen www.betavote.com

Its interesting.

i'm voting for badnarik, the libertarian candidate. he makes both kerry and bush look like the socialist UN loving whores that they really are.

he stands for the consitution and bill of rights. he's on almost every states' ballot, but you don't hear a word about him in the mainstream news. there's a reason for that too.

Definately voting Libertarian. No question in my mind, he is the right man for the job. Voting for Bush or Kerry would be the "lesser of two evils" and a waste of a vote. Check out Badnarik's plans for America - http://badnarik.org/plans.php

Whats wrong with the UN? Or socialism for that matter? I don't know anything about the Libertarians but if they make Bush look socialist they must be practically Nazis...

Take a look at their positions on these issues -

War On Drugs

Civil Liberties

War In Iraq

Industrial Hemp

Compared to the Libertarians, both the Democrats and the Republicans are Nazis.

Well the Libertarians have some good ideas some bad ideas (I just looked at their policies)

Legalising cannbis makes sense - its much less worse than tobacco or alcohol.
Legalising drug use would also mean that addicts could get help without fear of being charged, although dugs such as heroin and coccaine should be illegal to sell as they are so dangerous.

But what about their gun policies? What are they, psychos? Do they really think letting anyone have a gun will make the streets safer? Their idea is that if you give people guns they can protect themselves. That might be true in some circumstances, but in most, you wont be able to get to your gun. Then even if you do, you might shoot someone you didn't mean to, or shoot someone through misunderstanding. The person attacking you with a gun has a huge advantage over you.

And what if your children get hold of your gun?

In America guns are easy to get hold of and legal to own in most forms. This means all police and most common security guards have to carry guns, and often have to draw them on people because just about anyone could have a concealed gun. 16110 people were murdered in the USA in 2002.

Now lets look at the UK. Handguns are completely illegal. Rifles are only allowed if you have a very good reason to own one, and laws are tight. You can own a shotgun if you have a licence, but laws are still fairly tight. Few police carry guns, because they don't have to. Firstly they are trained to be effective without guns, secondly hardly anyone has guns. In the UK 1,048 were murdered. This includes an anomaly of 172 killed by a mad doctor (not kidding.) Yeah America has a larger population than the UK, but only about 5 times more. That does not account for the number of murders.

Cant vote lib in my state.....not on the ballot

Ya, I believe only responsible people should own guns. Not anyone who can hold one. And whats the point of having an armour piercing automatic rifle? You do not shoot deer with that Ill tell you. I am voting for Kerry. First of all legalization of drugs will never happen even the slim chance of this liberal getting voted into the whitehouse. Trust me Congress wouldnt hear of it. I watched the debates and whatnot. I am on federal funding for school. College is nearly costing me 100 grand for 4 yrs. Say if I got stopped and charge with a little bit of pot on me, I am cut off of federal funding. Kerry wants to change this and he also wants to lessen the charges of people caught with some drugs. He also wants to go through with stem cell research which can help in solving many diseases and whatnot. And frankly I cant stand bush. He always dodges questions and criticism. THe only issue he gave a clear cut answer on was gay marriage which he is FIRMLY against. In my opinion Bush got to be in politics not because he is bright or smart or even educated. Its because he had connections. Well its time for him to get out.
