because shes not a loving socialist and shes not a loving tribal

because shes not a loving socialist and shes not a loving tribal

She's also not closing off the U.S. to possible legitimate immigrants (those exist, right? ...Right?)

[Drydess]

I think the more important question is--which is the better of two evils should we choose from?

neither

[Lego lad]

neither

please third parties aren't that offending

This election has become "voting to keep someone out of office". Voting third party would purely make your vote null. If Bernie ran as independent at this point, you schism the votes on the democratic side and Annoying Orange will end up winning.


As it stands, its going to be Annoying Orange v Hillary. And I honestly don't see Annoying Orange winning at all.

i always find it ironic how someone talks about how you shouldn't vote for candidates that won't win, because people not voting for them because they won't win is exactly why they never do win

even in cases like this where both of the main parties' candidates are stuff, they'd rather choose the lesser of two evils than a smaller good

What is the point of doing a "small good" if its literally throwing away your vote? Does voting a better candidate from some small third party in the election help you sleep better at night, even if you get someone like Annoying Orange in the White House?

the point in voting for a small good is that it wouldn't be small if you actually followed through with their opinions

You shouldn't vote for candidates that won't win. Because of how our electoral system works, voting for a third-party candidate is basically equivalent to not voting at all.

However, if you're a fiscal conservative frustrated with Annoying Orange's weird economic policy, then voting for Gary Johnson does serve a purpose. If he accumulates 5% of all votes, the libertarian party will get public funding and be able to appear on ballots in most states for the next election. After Annoying Orange completely messes up the economic alignment of the Republican party, you'll probably all want to be switching over to being libertarians soon.

(This is definitely not a liberal trick to steal votes from Annoying Orange. I pinkie-swear)

Also Jill Stein is a terrible candidate.

If we are to expose Hillary's malversation, then we must be guided by a healthy and progressive ideology, not by the craven and maladroit ideologies that Hillary promotes.

This is something that people might actually say about Hillary.

[Drydess]

i think we can all agree jill stein is an idiot

What does this even mean

what i'm saying is that if you actually care enough about who leads your country you should contribute to who you think is best fit to, by your own standards
