I am NOT voting for a president this year!!

The reason America isn't mentioned in the bible is it wasn't discovered so the people who wrote the bible had no concept of it when writing. I think your being extremely pessimistic and apocolyptic. The fact is one will win, they'll promise things, they'll deliver some, fail on some and the world will keep turning. Take part in your democratic right to choose even if you vote for a third party candidate, otherwise you are insulting all the people in the world who have no choice at all. The only honourable refusual to vote is in a country like Zimbabwe where the vote truly is corrupt.

whether you use your voting right or not, the president is going to be selected. look at it with an optimistic and macro way.

I am definitely going to exercise my right to vote. Maybe you will decide to do the same it's up to you.

If you are a citizen, you have a responsibility to participate in the process. We ask our politicians to make hard choices all the time. Some of those choices are clear cut. Some are not. Still, we expect them to make the best choices they can based on the information they have. We have no less an obligation when it comes to the people who represent us. We should make the best choice we can based on the information we have. Not making a choice is a cop-out. Not only that, it deprives you of the moral right to complain about the result. If you don't participate and complain anyway, then you are just so much hot air. Lord knows, we've got enough of that already.

I would think anyone that is eligible to vote in America would want to take part in the election of the man that will fill the highest office in our land. He will be yours and my president and that of our children and grandchildren for the next four years. He will make decisions, sign laws, that will affect all of us for years to come. I wonder who you would rather be the President: a man who has hardly any experience, who has missed many votes on important items in Congress and only can say CHANGE is what he wants more than I say I am hungry; or would you want a man who knows from experience what terrorists can do the the person as well as the country, who upholds Israel as a nation and has been in Congress for years? It is your decision to vote or not, but, as they say, if you don't vote, then you have no right to say anything after one of them becomes your President and you don't like what he does to or for our country.

Shucks, we are already in a depression - not a recession. Go vote, just write in your vote (that is an alternative choice) Uh, America didn't come along till after the Bible was wrote. We have melted into a Nation that allows any one to come here and we cater to them. If we go to their Countries, we have to change. That doesn't sound quite right to me. I'm part Cherokee Indian so I really don't like the way lots of things are going. Our current president is about to make everyone our enemy and maybe even start one heck of a war. He should have been impeached a long time ago. And, YES... there is enough proof to impeach him. But money talks and no one has the gall to stand up for certain things.

That's why I didn't vote last election... I honestly just couldn't choose... They both seemed like a lot cause. This time I feel more confident to vote for who I think is best however it is still choosing the lesser of two evils. So funny too because at the beginning of the campaign trail I was for the one, and now after all the speeches I'm voting for the other. But I'm pretty proud of myself for really paying attention this time. Good point about the bible... Hope I don't live to see the end of America.

i hold a different view of ammerica in prophecy since i beieve in a rapture of christians and since america is a mostly christian nation i feel most of us will leave in the rapture leaving little of the usa to be left

Do you know that 1 vote could make the right President lose the election,the solution is not you staying away but going to vote. Don't stop been postive about the future of your Country.

I will definitely be casting my vote, it's my personal priviledge and I will take full advantage of it. It is definitely interesting to see which candidate will actually win.

This is why I think there should always be a write in vote. I like you do not believe in choosing between the lesser of 2 evils. And I know for a fact one of the voting booths in my precinct had a write in option.....and I will be writing in Ron Paul. I do not follow the whole "end of the world" visions of other people, but I am concerned by the attitudes of others. People need to wake up and realize their voices can be heard....so you have to work a little at it. I respect anyone who lives by truth and votes according to that. And if you do not have the option of a write in I understand your reasoning....although they should have a protest vote on the ballot so we can actually see how many AMericans are against the top candidates.

in Italy people had this feeling at the last elections too. i think it's right to question the whole system when it has evident flaws. if no decent candidates can be found, or if those who would really be able to make a difference are cut out of the process, i think it's right to refuse to vote. our candidates were all very questionable, they all had been around for years, and for years the italian political world has been packed with crooks and corrupt elements and none of those who could never did anything to change it. they have a shameful amount of priviledges, and i wouldn't even know where to start to describe how the whole system seems to exist only to prevent anyone to limit them. the interesting fact, is that this time people really got fed up. just before the elections there was a lot of talk about it, books were published narrating all the scandals and corruption going on in that world, and there was a palpable sensation of being near a collapse of the whole thing. obviously nothing changed, as someone said earlier in the discussion, one of them will eventually get elected. but i think it's important for the people to take a clear stand, and make their voices be heard, especially when they are feeling so disilluded by the way things are going. if on you job you think you need, or deserve a raise, you should have the right to ask for it. if your friends commit a crime and you don't want to, you have the duty to say so, even if they will go on doing it. if you feel disgusted by your politicians, you have the right and duty to say so, and you also have the right and duty to not vote if you want something better, of if you simply want things to work in a different way.

Christians more than any others have a responsibility to vote for who will hold the highest office in the land. God is sovereign. He is ultimately the one responsible for who obtains that office. Christians can make the choice based on knowing what the candidates stand on the most important issues. That is easy to find out. Taxes, health care, appointing supreme court justices, defending our country... including our borders...education, etc. Of course there is corruption; it's sad but a fact of life... all of life. As US citizens, we have to do the best we can to influence the country for good. Don't let others choose your leaders for you!

no man you must vote i know you must choose the lesser evil but watch the news and look at the amircan army and middle east children the two sides need you voting to to stop the blood over there(choose the less evil)i live in the middle east and we here need all of USA people vote for stop the wars i wish you vote we are wait your vote here

I felt like that with the last elections here in Australia, I didn't want to vote for the main parties and the one small party I wanted to vote for didn't have a member to vote for in my area, so I had to vote for someone as we get a fine if we don't vote...

I have to say I'm feeling the same way.
