Two rights remaining to me, which I believe have not yet been infringed upon,
are my right to vote and my right to choose.
I choose not to vote for either candidate. I choose not to vote for the lesser
of two evils. I choose not to throw away my vote. I choose to vote for a
third-party candidate. I choose to send a message that I do not believe that
Bush or Kerry will end our position of being the police force of the world and
bring our soldiers home.
Neither will curb the glutinous appetite of big government to take too much of
your money and spend even more than they take. Neither will see laws are
eliminated which take away more of your rights.
As a registered Libertarian, I believe very strongly in the Bill of Rights. I am
concerned when I see those rights being eroded by special interest groups. I am
horrified and saddened at the wars waged on crime, drugs, and terrorism we
never win. And all of this is unchallenged, and even promoted by the Democrats
and the Republicans.
Both parties intentionally make it very difficult for a vote to be cast for a
third-party candidate. Enough is enough! A mind or a body is a terrible thing
to legislate. That is why I choose to vote Libertarian.
