Something to Think About
11.04.08 (9:09 am)   [edit]
I'm not one of those do-gooders that thinks we should "all go out and vote." I honestly do believe that some people should stay home on election day...because they have no business voting in the first place. I don't feel like writing an essay on this. Instead, if you think I'm nuts, please check out this column by one of my favorite writers, John Stossel.

A Duty Not to Vote?

While we're at it, did you know that there IS NO RIGHT TO VOTE in federal elections in this country? Don't believe me? Go find the part of the United States Constitution that says you have a right to vote...I'll wait. (HINT: it's not the 15th, 19th or 26th Amendments.)

Can't find it? Still need more proof?

Read this little ditty by Neal Boortz. (Make sure to check out his links.)

You can also read this paper by Congressman Jesse L. Jackson, Jr., Fighting for a Right to Vote Constitutional Amendment.

The United States Supreme Court has ruled time and again that there is no individual right to vote in federal elections.

I think if people do not know what they are voting for, then we are better off if they stay home!

just my humble opinion...
