Ross Perot came in third in 1992, when Clinton was elected on a 43% plurality -- 57% of Americans voted against him. Two years later he got his ass kicked when the Republican Revolution happened. Do you really think the RR would have happened if Clinton had won with a majority, or if HW had been re-elected?

If my notion that my vote has "noble meaning" (as in weight) is incorrect, then about 236 years of patriots' fighting and dying was all for naught.

So just who is the Ross Perot in this race that’s going to get any amount of meaningful votes?

Also, let’s see what happens when we all follow your ‘noble’ logic:

We all make our personal stands. We vote for or even write in our perfect candidate (AND LET’S NOT WAIT! LET’S DO IT THIS ELECTION) for every possible position. For a fact, do you know what we’d have in 2013? NOT ONE SINGLE REPUBLICAN ELECTED! Every single Republican running has something in their past that some voter could consider of the ‘devil’. (I wanted Herman Cain, then Newt. You don’t think I could’ve used your logic to eliminate them as men I could vote for based on things in their past?)So not one single Republican would get enough votes to beat their democratic opponent. Great!/S. We’d be left with 100% democrats, most of them actually Marxists or worse. But let’s do it. That’ll show’em,huh?
