attaboy, Joe.. set the example that makes this Nation great.. i'm proud i voted for you..
You are going a bit too far with being proud, since he openly sidestepped congress to fund genocide in Gaza.
if you voted for anyone else, you don't know what it means to be proud of your vote, so your opinion doesn't mean shit
You should never be proud of voting for someone, they are all crooks.
you are a slave
?
exactly.. an ignorant slave, and you don't even realize it.. you don't know what it means to be proud of your vote, so you also don't know what it means to take responsibility for your vote.. if you have no responsibility for your vote, you are a slave..
Sorry mister educated high-class. Shame the poor slaves that are too stupid to fight for their rights. You as an educated high class society man should tell us poor slaves how we should vote for some rich morons that have only their rich pockets in interests. We, ignorant slaves, shouldn't even be allowed to vote, if we can't even be proud for voting for some idiot high-class fascist such as you.
you're a slave because you're so reactionary.. i'm just a citizen, and you don't even qualify for that..
oh no, I am so hurt by your high-class educated words
peasants are always self conscious of their lack of education.. it makes them belligerent..
I highly respect peasants, workers and slaves. And would much rather be on their side of history then of some rich fascist snobs. PS: I assume you are a young kid in collage, so I will not participate in shaming you anymore. When you grow older you will understand how wrong your values are right now.
ah yes, the honorable peasant, digging in the mud.. dig on, peasant..
I am glad you got to vote for the person that best represents you. Why not the rest of us as well?
Doing away with first past the post voting will allow people to vote third party with no spoiler effect. More people voting = more democratic votes.
Can someone explain why blue states are still using FPTP voting?
Because if only blue states get rid if FPTP and no red states, Republicans will gain a lot more power in government. They'd have a lock on the Presidency forever and possibly a permanent majority in both houses of Congress.
If all states did it, Democrats (and the new leftist coalition in general) would gain more power, but probably only a constitutional convention could force the red states to abandon FPTP.
I think this guy theodewere perfectly shows the classic liberal mindset in his insults towards me in the comments here and disdain for the poor and uneducated he has for no reason but to shame them. This is shows the true values of the liberals that pretend to care about the weak and being so highly upvoted it is clear that many agree, but don't really want to be that open about it.
I really don't care.
i got to vote for an honest man, who cares about his fellow Americans, and who makes friends all over the world.. and he makes all our enemies whine like little bitches..
