Suit yourself.
But even a 12-year-old voting on American Idol knows that if he doesn’t want a particular singer to win, he *must vote for the other guy.*
As for your view that my point was a “total BS argument that is the product of a party based political system” blah blah blah, uh, NO. I think for myself, thank you. And would you care to explain how you are not responsible for electing a Rat if you refuse to vote for the Republican nominee?
Tell me where I’m wrong here:
When a vote is cast for “X” in the general election, its first effect is to cancel a vote for the other viable (major party) candidate, “Y”.
If there are no more votes for the other candidate (”Y”) to cancel, then the vote causes the election of “X.”
Therefore, the first possible effect of one’s vote for “X” is a vote against “Y.”
If one does not vote for “X,” one is not voting against “Y.”
The candidate with the fewest votes AGAINST him wins.
If you don’t vote for “X,” you don’t cancel a vote for “Y.” Therefore, if “Y” wins, you helped.
