If you truly don't support Bush and you're going to vote for Badnarik, then maybe your forum shouldn't be a blast furnace for all things anti-Kerry. When was the last time you posted a useful article about the guy you're voting for?

I don't agree with you that voting for a candidate like Kerry and justifing it with arguments against Bush is a false position. In the end, both of them are policticians. Whether you know all their platform positions or not, they'll be changing them after they're elected anyway. One thing I'm counting on is that Kerry is less gung-ho about preemptive military actions. I can't allow Bush to remain in office by taking the high road with my vote.

Changing the political landscape must start at the local level. Once you have a new system at the local level you can begin to push legimate candidates into the state and national level. But before you change the local level, your vote for Badnarik is not going force either the Republicans or Democrats to change their ways.
