*sigh*
At least election day is almost here, that means it will finally be over with and we can get along with our lives. That means no more of those negative commericials or crazy people speaking on TV that is an "expert" even though no one knows who they are, kind of like Jack Thompson.
Apparently this election is going to be sort of a big deal. Voting matters, or at least I am told so. Darn those citizenship responsibilities given to us. How dare they give us "power." Which way is your "power" going?
Sorry Europeans, your vote don't count here. Even though
some of them are complaining and whining that they should be able to vote in US elections. I see their side of things but c'mon now, we don't get to vote in other countries. Just cause they know about our history and gov't officials more than we do, doesn't mean they should be allowed to vote. Wait a minute...
ANYWAYS!
On November 4 (or before), if you can tear yourself way from
epic...who do you think would be a better president for gamers? Which president would benefit or not harm a gamer's world the most? This isn't about spending money, middle names, age, experience, or what have you...but the cold, hard, solid facts towards us gamers.
Maybe we need a Gamer President! Hey...it will happen. Just better not be a Halo kid!
If I didn't feel so bad about wasting a vote, I'd definitely write-in Batman for President.
I can get behind that...
...even if he is useless. :P

And I'm voting for Adam's mom.
Why? Because his plans aren't filled with liberal ideas that will turn our great nation to Socialism. We'll see how many video games each of us are buying in the future, once Obama decides to "spread the wealth" around. Helping those in need is an honorable thing. Being forced to help a large percentage of those who have no desire to help themselves is a whole other matter. Obama has the looks and the silver tongue -- but he certainly doesn't have my vote.
LO FUCKING L
some of the things that come out of her vagina aren't retarded
OH SNAP!
Obama '08
@Gameboi: While there are certainly reasons to vote (or not) for each candidate, I don't think you've accurately characterized Obama's platform. Nor is someone who criticizes McCain for being identical to Bush doing much more than reiterating talking points.
Then again, I think the human tendency is to decide first, and rationalize in hindsight, so public political discourse about a coming election is typically terrible at arriving at anything approaching the truth.
I've been on the low end of the socioeconomic scale my whole life, so socialism is looking pretty good to me. I'm not going to sit here and pretend to be an expert on the subject, because I'm clearly not, but it's not always as simple as giving a handout to "those who have no desire to help themselves."
I work my balls off to barely get by, like my parents, while trust fund dickholes do nothing and get even richer by exploiting other people. That hardly seems fair, right?
Also, this.
Batman has 2
My mom has 2
Mike Haggar has 1
Mccain has 1
Obama has 1
I think...
@Gameboi: You know I love you Gameboi, but you are so very, very wrong
There's more to it than just this, but Gameboi summed it up well. Really well.
I will have to put a cap in your ass tonight during FNF for saying the bs.
You want to know who is sufferring? The middle class. Socialism isn't a bad thing. I've been down before and I know what its like to try to get out of a hole. People make mistakes and deserve a second chance.
Or GiveEmHellGravel (Mike Gravel's Gamertag)
I'm not going to explain my reasons here. There are too many political flame wars going around already.
So I'll either poke my finger at the screen while covering my eyes, or write myself in.

JK Obama
Do you think I'm going to risk Palin being President. Surely you're jesting.
Obama is going to "change" our governments ways as much as anyone else that could get elected in this country would... including McCain. Fuck'em both.

Yes, I'll pay my normal taxes (which, if you are self-employed, are insane). But beyond that, everyone has a chance to make it their own way. People really need to get off this "hate the rich" mentality. Who do you think provides your jobs? They could just very well stop using their money to create jobs and keep it all to themselves. On top of this, there's an entitlement mentality in this country where people think they should have something just because someone else does. This country was founded with the promise of a PURSUIT of happiness, not one paid for by others. There is much more to this, but I've ranted long enough. /rant
