Don't Vote

Humdizzy · 10-31-2006, 06:14 PM

A nice little test to see if people should be eligible to vote. I'm thinking this should be mandatory.

I got a D.

I shouldn't vote.

Voting should be considered a privilege and exercised with responsibility and discretion. Just like a final exam, responsible voting requires self-education and thought. When the time comes to cast your ballot, if you don't know for what or whom you're voting, then DON'T VOTE.

You should consider not voting until you update your knowledge on contemporary issues.

The ones I got wrong were # 16, 25, 26, 37, 38, 41, 42 (can't believe I didn't know Laura Bush), 53, 54 (had no idea).

Instead of voting, you should consider moving to France.

Wow, harsh words.

I believe that one does not have to know all of politics to vote. Instead, as long as you are passionate about what you are voting for. So, let's say you are 100% against the war. If you decide to vote for a president that is against the war because you are passionate about that subject I believe you should. Although I would recommend that you do some research to see what else the person offers, I think it is a shame that people get bashed for "blind voting". In the end it is all the same anyways.

I don't see the point in voting anyway, you're sure to get a complete idiot no matter what happens. That's what politics is all about, voting for out-of-touch, clueless idiots.

Now if B33R was running, it would be a whole different story...
