I blame the American method of teaching history and the public schools' penchant for indoctrinating rather than educating. People need to realise that NO ONE is perfect and that there is NO SUCH THING as the perfect candidate. You can't please all of the people all of the time. I would definitely rather agree with someone 60% of the time than 0% of the time. Heck, I don't even agree with my husband 100% of the time, and I love him more than life itself. To repeat my diatribe against "protest voters": A special note to all those self-absorbed whiners who want to vote for a third-party candidate: 1) Voting for a third-party candidate does not make you better than everybody else — you’re not that special. 2) Voting for a third-party candidate makes you self-righteous — you will not get special standing from God if you vote for the Constitution Party, nor will God strike you dead for voting for McCain. 3) Do you remember 1992??? Perot handed the election to Clinton. A vote for a third-party candidate is a vote for Oshama — remember that! I rest my case. Larry,
