Currently, I'm considering whether or not I want to leave my vote for president blank next fall.

Mind if a make a very strong request of you? If you don't want to vote for Bush, then could you at least vote for the Constitution Party candidate or for someone else you'd think might be worthy of the office? It'll make a much larger impact than a blank space.

I'll keep it in mind. I'd rather be able to vote for Bush, but I am growing increasingly disenchanted with his policies. To be frank, from the policy standpoint, it's hard to tell the difference between Bush and a Dem other than the fact that Bush has shown a strong commitment to the War on Terror. I wouldn't want to trust that to a Dem; ANY Dem.

In addition, by allowing John McCain to develop the bulk of Bush's "immigration reform", I fully expect that we have a whole new screw job in the works that will deprive us of more of our Constitutional rights. McCain has an accomplished track record (via CFR) of attacking the Constitution and winning. Expect to see American citizenship take a backseat to the rights of illegals poring across our borders and sucking up our government benefits. If we think CA has budget problems, I anticipate that America will be bankrupted by the illegals who suck our benefits dry and contribute nothing. When Bush is done with his "immigration reform", Americans who have paid into the system all of their lives, will likely take second place behind the illegals to receive the benefits they have paid for all of their lives.
