I do agree with a lot of what you have written. My problem is that I have a hard time 'wasting' my vote on a candidate that clearly has no chance of winning. I know I should vote for the person I want to win, but most times, I vote against the one I don't want to win. It's more a matter of choosing the best of 2 evils. Currently (at least on a national level) the Republicans & Democrats are the only parties with a chance of winning.

i dont agree with all of it, i personally wouldnt want some drugs to be legalized , simply because some folks know no bounds so to speak. anyway check it out on the other issues on the site when you get time. you may just find yourself nodding your head in agreement on most of them like i did. Bro.....oddly enough, I do agree with damn near all of it.......just not the legalization of drugs. We already have a problem.....giving our youth *permission* to use them is just an irresponsible request. My kid would not have my permission to use cocaine just like she does not have my permission to drink Crown Royal. And how does keeping cocaine illegal keep her from using it anyway? Remeber what happened with the Volstead Act? That's the same thing going on with drug "prohibiton".

well i'm hoping someday you wont be wasting your vote . i believe if their agenda was more publicised and they had a likeable smart candidate , not a perot type or a dr kavorkian looking candidate, it may not be a waste of a vote. thus "changing minds one at a time " . i dont believe we will ever get our country back inour lifetime , i'm doing most of my campaigning for my children. with illegals running rampant and wallys the us's number 1 employer , with outsourcing labor, and new laws to "protect" us every day, i'm just hoping america see the light some day. for our kids sake. i was in a 7-11 the other day getting gas. 2 russians working behind the counter, about a dozen mexicans talking jibberish, and 2 americans. i asked the guy "think we'll ever get our country back?" he turned and laughed at me saying "who's country" . we talked while we pumped gas and had to just shake our heads. its a shame , i never dreamed at 46 i would ever be a minority just by being an "AMERICAN" pathetic i say

So if it were legal, would you use it? Probably not because it keeps me up at night and I wouldn't feel right telling my kid no and me using it. Glad to see you have seen the light on freedom.
