Voting in the US. I don't understand.
I often see people have written to either vote for Obama or for Romney. - That's the first thing I'm confused about.
Why either of those two? Do you have to vote for one or the other? Can you vote for no one? Can you vote for someone you think is a suitable candidate for the president - even though he doesn't stand a chance?
I can understand not being able to vote for someone who is unqualified to be in the running, but what about simply not voting? Do people think it makes a difference who they vote for?
I know the States has two major parties - Republicans and Democrats. I believe they are merely two facades of the people pulling the strings behind the scenes and believe it makes no difference who you vote for because those string-pullers aren't going to change except for the worse.
Ron Paul??? It seemed he was popular with the people, but for some reason he is ineligible to stand for election? Is that right? So if Ron Paul is out of the running, do his supporters have to shift to another candidate? I thought that if the Ron Paul supporters learn their man was out of the running, then why should they vote for another hopeful who they didn't choose?
With all the bad publicity surrounding Romney, and the appalling performance of Obama plain to see, why should anyone want to vote for either of them?
* I am aware that our beloved masters (oy vei) require us peons to vote the scumbags they push at us - so THEY can rightly tell us it's our own fault for voting for them. But without that mandate, they will surely come unstuck, no?
I am generally confused about this Romney/Obama fiasco. I can't understand how anyone with an average number of functioning neurons would want to vote at all under the present conditions.
But then, I'm just an expat Brit who hasn't voted in his life, and doesn't intend to - until and when voting is done without the carpet-baggers moving sheckels under the tables.

You answered your own question, sadly.
Most vote because they are told they have to.
That simple.

RE: Voting in the US. I don't understand.
Correct, I don't understand how anyone thinks it's not the upper class being put in power by the even upper classes to keep the interest.
Investment.
Many know this, will they do something about it?
Maybe one day.

RE: Voting in the US. I don't understand.
old bs left/right paradigm, it is advanced more now though to include a false 3d option of choice to keep the "wise" in check.
honestly the choice is either to revolt or accept slow enslavement.
AJ does a good breakdown of the paradigm here but fails to mention the controlled third options, which is one reason people think he is controlled op but this video is good for the basics.

They used to trick people to vote for these assholes, but Bill Clinton let the cat out of the bag(Tragedy and Hope), and the internet was becoming a threat, so they had Al Gore run an Intentionally pathetic campaign against W to lose a"really close race" so they could install Diebold and an overtly fascist dictatorship.

RE: Voting in the US. I don't understand.
Americans sadly are a lazy bunch of flag waiving pseudo patriots that only show up to vote in large numbers in Presidential Elections. Real change would involve better voter turnout and more participation in the process at the local level. It would also encompass activism and participation at the local party level and carcases. Big Mac?

I look at this and I wonder, it really makes me go...huh?
Screaming and waving flags at some f*cker that had 5/6/7 million to spare on a drive to make him pres.
It completely deviates from any of the values people actually profess to hold dear.
What a circus.

RE: Voting in the US. I don't understand.
So I take it the people here who have their own opinion all shun Obama & Romney? That's the feeling I have felt forever though.
So if I use the membership here as a guide, neither Romney or Obama would qualify for president?
The melanin-enhanced and the non-melanin-enhanced apologists will vote robotically for the magic Negro - but that wouldn't comprise much over 15% of the people. From what I've heard, no one wants Romney anyway, so that leaves the vast majority - the overwhelming majority without a candidate of their choice.
Does this overwhelming majority vote for someone they didn't choose - I mean, does this majority vote for one or the other simply because they feel they have to vote for one of the (two) candidates THEY parade in front of them?
I wouldn't vote for someone I didn't like, so I can't understand why anyone else would do it. Does the majority keep falling for the lies and is perpetually tricked into believing the promises of a particular candidate?

RE: Voting in the US. I don't understand.
I forgot about the Mestizos - they're likely to vote for Obama because they feel through him they can milk the US easily.
So Non-Whites will generally vote for Obama because it means they get free stuff. That's what? 25% of the population?
Romney might seem attractive to gullible fools who believe Romney is somehow going to be behind a push for people to work for their living? I can see Romney as being as popular as a stand-up comedian at a funeral with the melanin-enhanced.
