Why I will not vote for president

[Leader of the Banned]

Although I believe Ms Clinton will be a better President than Mr Trump, I do not believe she was the best candidate who ran. I did not vote for her in the primaries for the same reasons I won't vote her in the election. Although I have issues with Governor Johnson, I would be more comfortable with him as President than either Ms Clinton or Mr Trump.

You'l be able to move objects with your mind before you'll be able to help Johnson get elected.

Speaking of bubonic plague, wasn't that a blast of fresh air from Colin Powell? I've never felt such a blast of fresh air, with such a disturbing odor...

I was one of those who said a third party candidate was a wasted vote. Over time I have come to the conclusion that because of the way the 2 party system has worked over the last eight years because of rhose within the Republican party primarily but also those in leadership of the Democratic party we have in my opinion built more roadblocks than highways. My take, it is now the time for a third party to shake things up in those establishment parties. I am not trying to be like Lars, trying to deflect, or Bob, trying to play guessing games. I am just telling you where I am and why. I appreciate your views and don't necessarily disagree wuth what you say, but it is my vote and I get to choose how it will cast.

It is a wasted vote if it is simply a protest vote. Actually joining a 3rd party and getting involved might be worthwhile. A vote for Nader got Bush elected. If you are OK with a vote for Johnson getting Trump elected then have at it. If you are OK with Trump in the white house then nothing else can be said.

And if you are ok with the status quo that is your choice. I wish I had listened to those who had espoused the third party vote years ago. Like you I thought it should be one of the 2 party candidates. My suggestion is this, beside believing my vote will get Mr Trump elected maybe you should worry about getting your candidate elected. Personally you sound like one of those folks who would leave their country if Mr Trump is elected... if you are and promise not to return I am more than happy to assist in the purchase of a one way ticket, caveat you can't come back. I may have voted for a different Democratic Candidate as I may have voted for a different Republican candidate, but neither of the 2 candidates from those parties will get my vote.

The status quo is going to take office this year. It's a given. It will either be Trump or Clinton.It only makes sense to put your weight behind the one you find most tolerable.
