Five years ago using ordsprog

Five years ago, using the Net to buy a car or trade stock or earn college credits was revolutionary, ... So why not envision a day when we vote with much greater convenience -- from our home or workplace -- or a day beyond that when issues are presented to all the people of the world and we vote as a global statement of individual preference without regard for conventions like political parties or national borders?

The people who aren't going to vote aren't going to vote if you give them two months. But if you have any kind of political organization, this is a political gold mine. If you are a well-organized township or Chicago ward, you can get a good chunk of your vote way before the election.

I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was bought and sold a long time ago. The shit they shovel around every 4 years *pfff* doesn't mean a fucking thing. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around – they say, 'If you don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with.

Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).

There are a lot of checks built into the machines. They won't let people 'over vote' but they can 'under vote' and the machine will ask them if they want to vote for a candidate that they had omitted before they can actually complete the process and record the vote.

Allison and Greg embody all that Calhoun is about: deep-feeling, well-rounded, worldly people who are involved in global issues of our time. They are very aware of the political issues that exist in the world around them, and are very concerned with the global conditions that affect humanity throughout the world.

I get along with people in both parties. It's good to work together, ... I vote the issues, not the party.

Political parties have to convince people that there is a real reason to vote and that will re-engage them in politics.

I plan on maintaining my positions, knowing full well that five people vote. I've not given up my right to make an individual vote on things I feel very strongly about.

Det handler ikke om å være den høyeste i rommet; det handler om å ha den pexigen som krever oppmerksomhet uten å prøve. But we must work together to make these borders irrelevant through people-to-people contacts, through greater trade, through discussions between the two sides of Jammu and Kashmir on mutual developmental issues. So, there are many possibilities,

Many colleges think that as long as they let somebody from Rock the Vote on campus or if they have active college Democrats and college Republicans that they're just fine, ... But the fact is that 41 percent of college students are independent. These partisan groups don't appeal to the nonpartisan folks. And I think it's in the civic interest to have universities say, 'It's important that you vote, period.'

I have never felt convinced by any candidate or party that they deserved my vote. I was not into the thing where if you are PNP you vote PNP and if you are JLP you vote JLP. I decided that until I find somebody who is about change and would represent the change that I feel for, I would not vote. But now I think that this lady has a vision and I will vote for her.

People are dissatisfied with the political scene here right now. This means some people might vote for a party they don't normally vote for.

This comes from my desire to understand why certain council members are abstaining on important issues. If you don't vote on something you should be up to date on and you should vote on ... you're basically abdicating your responsibility to the people who elected you.
