Honestly, I am beginning to think I might not. Why? Because I am completely outraged at the treatment of presidential candidate Congressman Dennis Kucinich.
He has been shut out of debates completely, given minimum time during the debates he was at, given NO media time, etc...

I have voted in every election since I turned 18. Voting isn't just a right, it is one of your civic responsibilities. For our democratic process to work all citizens need to participate.
I do regretable feel that neither of the major parties have presented any viable candidates for President of the US. I will most likely vote for a third party candidate even though the chances of electing someone qualified are very slim. :( If enough people would vote for candidates not endorsed by either the Republicans or Democrats, even if none of these candidates get elected seeing the loss of critical swing votes will eventualy force the major parties to start presenting candidates who are actualy qualified for the offices they are running for.

I will definately vote in this election. Voting is not just a right, it is a responsibility for every American citizen. Your vote does make a difference, even if your chosen candidate does not win. It makes a statement on your beliefs, your values, and the direction in which you want your government to take. Any winning candidate also listens to the opposition in an effort to assure their reelection the next time around.

I have voted in every general, special and primary election since first becoming eligible to vote in 1960. 2008 will be no different. If you don't vote, you are just an inhabitant.

Yes. Ron Paul is the only way to vote.

I am going to vote.
There are certain rights I have that I am voting to protect, like gun ownership for instance.
