Voting in self-defense for someone (Badnarik) who would stop someone else (Bush or Kerry) from depriving you of more liberty and more cash, is every bit as justified as using a firearm in self defense if someone is trying to deprive you of your life or your cash.

And on a practical note, if you somehow persuaded 51% that voting was immoral, the other 49% would still elect their President and take your liberty and your cash. (It�s what happens now, if you�re not paying attention.)

If you somehow persuaded 51% of the people to vote for Michael Badnarik, think how much better your life would be!

The best part is, it doesn�t take 51% � since less than 50% of the population votes, 20 or 25% would be enough for Badnarik to win.

Get another 20 to 25% to abstain from voting, and where does that get you?

Can any republican or democrat argue this point here??

Not my point, but I agree with it so I brought it on here so you fellow political monkey's could see it.

Democrats aren't really bothered because you're not attracting the left wing. We're keeping our precious votes.

Republicans are scared of a third party.
