    Regardless of whether the president has much impact on your life, as a Californian, your vote has virtually no impact on who will be elected. In political circles it’s a given that whoever the Democrats run in California will win ALL of the electorial college votes for the state of California. And I guarantee this year will be no different. In the last several elections the republican candidate has not even bothered to do anything more than one or two token appearances in California.

    There are three ways you can look at this:
    1) Not vote since the result is a foregone conclusion.
    2) Be a good sheeple and vote Democratic and enjoy the fact you voted for the winning candidate.
    3) Vote for some radical nutcase candidate, hoping to send a “message” that you are fed up with the lousy bums the demrepubs give us.

    My personal preference is #3, but then again I never have had much sense and always had a soft spot for radical nutcases.

    Voting is so ingrained into me…my dad was a precinct captain in Chicago for the original Mayor Daley (in the 60s and 70s). There was never any question in our house that we were Dems and that when we turned 18 we would do our civic duty and vote.

    That having been said, I’m not a mindless idiot. I DO take a look at the issues. Unfortunately, this time I’m just not dazzled by any of the candidates – GOP or Dem.

    I agreed with a previous poster that the Clinton years were a time of peace and prosperity. Maybe if Hill is in office, Bill will be a “shadow” president. That is about the only thing that would prompt me to vote for her!

    I can’t stand the sight of that when we have a population of 300M.I really hope we have a “nut case” to vote for, otherwise I am going to have to vote for MLK again. If we ever have another Bush or if Chelsea isn’t something really special when it’s her turn ……

    I think it’s ridiculous to say that it doesn’t matter who the president is because it doesn’t impact in their life.

    “It’s all related!”
