why should I vote in 2016
Nobody wants to talk about this.

Why should I vote ???

(4) four times in history an election nominee has won presidency while losing the popular vote.

So what's the point in voting? We all know the electoral college decides who to put in.
Yet we fall for the same scham every 4 years??


1824 John Quincy Adams loses the populace vote by 38,000. Still elected president.

1876 Rutherford B Hayes loses the populace vote by 264,000. Still elected president.

1888 Benjamin Harrison lost the populace vote by 95,713. Still elected president.

100 years pass and "We the people" forget our vote means squat.

2000 George W Bush loses populace vote by 500,000. Still elected president

Explain why I should vote in 2016

With all the various frauds and such like in this system, there is one good thing. The "ballot" still is secret. You may vote or not and it is no body's business if you do.

If you are not going to be part of the landslide that TRUMP will need to overcome all this you might as well stay home.

You can just lie and say whatever inquiring busy bodies wanna hear.

Just curious. ..
What do you consider a landslide?

Bush lost by 500 THOUSAND in 2000, yet still won.

How can one of the richest most powerful celebrities not be a part of it?

Watch one episode,and I'm stressing only one episode of "Apprentice" and tell me he's not an a**hole.

Why do we believe his moral compass is angelic all of a sudden.

I love everything Trump says.
But it's all lies.
He's just another card in the deck.
If he wins, it's only because they ment for it.

Nobody has to "vote" anymore....
Diebold will do it for you. I'm sure we can all waste our time on something more meaningful. I'll start "voting" when whomever offers large cash incentives, until then I'm busy.

You're right. In 24 states the electoral votes have no obligation to vote like the state. They can vote as they please. I'm sure they follow party lines, which would eliminate an independent's chance.
Both parties have had a majority, at sometime, since 1804 and they had a chance to change it if they wanted.
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.

Then you would have states such as NY and CA running the show. I think they have more than enough influence as it is as they shove the socialist agenda down our throats. Lets save what little power we have until we are ready to secede...
