McSame And Obama Nation Some Would Rather Not Vote

Over the last six months it was pretty difficult to not hear the names of our Presidential candidates over and over again, and now with the Presidential primaries expected to launch that reality will be even more hard to ignore.

One thing I did learn on my endeavors in the past few months is the growing concern coming from a significant group who claims not to like either candidate. Today's post is to remind everyone out there that the television and corporate press does not have to rob you of your vote.

There is a big secret, a secret that both major parties are not happy about and that is there are other candidates in the running besides Obama and McCain, so if you do not like them you could perhaps vote for someone else?! The overwhelming response I get when I mention this radical idea of a third party is laughter and the snickering reply that third parties are not real candidates. Pehaps if they were the television would be all over it because lord only knows they would be going "Anna Nicole Smith" on a president that launched an illegal war, why we have a massive naval buildup in the Persian Gulf, and airing executives facing criminal racketeering by the hundreds in the wake of all these bank failures.

My point, is that the television is not your mind, it is not what is best for America, and it certainly ought not affect your opinion about who you believe is best for America. Below are the alternate Presidential Choices and their Ads. The Ads that you will probably never see. My point today, if you do not like McSame, or ObamaNation than come vote anyway and give one of these longshots a voice in 2012. If they score 10% they will be included in the debates next election.

THE THIRD PARTY LINE UP

Connecticut's Own Ralph Nader (Green Party/Independent Party)



A Voice For The U.S. Constitution Chuck Baldwin (Constitution Party)



Former Republican U.S. Congressman Bob Barr (Libertarian Party)
