RE: I was going to write my thoughts on the Presidential Candidates then I thought ; what would be the use of that . . .
There is very little if any difference between Trump and Hilliary. They are both Liberal Democrats. (Oddly enough so is Johnson. The Green party is even worse). The fact that Trump is running as a Republican does nothing to change what he is. I have no desire to vote for a Liberal Democrat.
If you vote for something you do NOT believe in, you waste your vote.
Not voting is the same as voting for NONE OF THE ABOVE.
If you are disgusted with the political environment...vote for NOTA.
NOTA vote is simply ignored and even if a candidate gets four votes more than their accomplices then they would win the election and become your Representative.
Simply a NOTA vote is bad , since it achieves no useful purpose ; if enough people voted NOTA then the government would be forced to just continue to have more elections at tax payers expense until some sort of human clear majority winner was found.
The people with the power are not going to simply give it up just because others want them to, after all ; professional politicians have spent years qualifying for the Platinum level of " Working for Welfare payments " . To think these ' THINGS ' will just give up the privileges they have endorsed for themselves is sheer idiocy ! ! !
Did you just say that the elections are a farce?
No the elections are very much real ; but suggesting anything material relating to real life will fundamentally alter for the better is not realistic until the majority get rid of long serving professional politicians.
The French solved the problem of the privileged minority 200 years ago , maybe there are human lessons to learn from history...
