So change your affiliation to the Green party like I did.

You want your vote to count for the Democrats even though the interests of big business and their buddies are more important to them than yours? Imagine if you were on welfare and were really feeling the strain of what Clinton did with his reprehensible Welfare Reform Act. This country is politically disgusting, Mary. There is a very thin line between Democrats and Republicans, if any. The only thing, in my opinion, that anyone can do now is to vote on principle. The Democratic party doesn't share any of mine and probably won't for quite some time, so they won't get my vote.

"Used to" being the key phrase.

Puh Leez.
Too bad he turned into a Republican as the years wore on. Clinton was a piece of ****, I'm sorry...the more I think about him, the more I dislike him. Remember when he phoned Kerry and told Kerry that he should denounce gays? I don't like the man, I don't care who sucked him off, and I'm not voting for his wife. Like I said, I'll actively campaign against her when she begins her race and I hope she falls on her face.

It's scary to think that votes are thrown away and not counted, very scary. But that's our political system nowadays. I'm very scared of the future, to be honest.
