That's what I do. Vote for some local issues and leave others blank like governor, president. It's a form of protest.

What about vote for third party candidates?

And if no Third Party Candidate Write in "Term Limits".

A third party indeed- a TURD Party.

A Turd is the only real candidate to vote for:

Turd Party Campaign Promises:

No salary or benefits
No need for supporting staff
No new laws
No new taxes
No lobbyists
No new wars
No more spending/pork barrel bills.

Because they're TURDS.

 

Turds connect across racial barriers:

Turds are born brown.

Turds age white.

Because they're TURDS.

 

Turds don't authorize anything.

They don't authorize NAFTA

They don't authorize TPP

They don't authorize Porous borders

Because they're TURDS.

 

Turds keep ALL their campaign promises.

The only lying Turds do is as they lay there and disintegrate.

Turds are better than every politician of modern times.

Because they're TURDS.

 

Vote the Turd Ticket!

It's a straight up "Turd ticket" for me:

Turd for President
Turd for VP
Turd for Senate
Turd for Congress
Turd for Governor
Turd for Mayor

The Turd Party = the Winning Ticket.

Because they're TURDS.

I guess they pro rate your renouncement. I heard one lady paid $5000 to give up citizenship since she had money or high income.

Mind if I ask? Was like $1500 or closer to $5000.

Not that I would ever do it... just wondering.

I got in under the wire last year before they hiked it to 2350.,  I paid 450 US dollars.

I never made over 120k a year which is small potatoes . The FATCA goes after the guys in the 500,000 class and higher.,

But I got my original citizenship back because I was born here.  so it was quite easy for me.

You should consider voting for nobody.

But you should beware his cousins, "Notone Ofus", and "Idont know".

They're real trouble makers.

They've been behind a long train of theft and vandalism.

No crime is too petty.

Why just last night they were at my house.

I got home and found a trail of mud leading from the door straight to the TV, where my kids were watching.

Not only that, but the shoe cabinet had been broken!

"Who did this?" I asked.

"Idont Know" replied my son.

"Notone OFus" replied my daughter.

if voting actually would make a difference they would ban it.

You know why they have election day on Tuesday?

To keep the turnout as low as possible.

Most democracies and republics have their election day on Sundays or Weekends.

Any whistleblower that would really make a difference gets the Michael Hastings treatment.

I had a very intelligent person tell me years ago.  If you think it makes a difference who the President is as to YOUR OWN personal future , then vote.

He told me with my OWN efforts I could make my OWN luck and good fortune, I followed his advice and was open to the world .  in 1989 I was offered high paying job overseas,  I took it and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.  Never been back to live or work since.

Here is something for you to ponder.

"If you (Senator Wellstone) vote against the war in Iraq, the Bush administration will do whatever is necessary to get you. There will be severe ramifications for you and the state of Minnesota." -- Vice President Dick Cheney to Senator Paul Wellstone (D), October, 2002, just days before Wellstone's death in a suspicious airplane "accident".

Scanning through the first 30 or so comments is truly amazing.  So many, wedded to an obvious, corrupt beyond belief system.  The common sense IQ deficit displayed is breathtaking. 

Yes, I know this section is not representative of the typical ZH reader.  These comment sections throughout the net are always over run by the least among us. 

The problem is they are truly the majority.  They are the herd runners, dumber than cattle, probably descendants of the earliest sheep and the political system as it stands today is an accurate reflection of those facts; They are the enemy of freedom and good government.

Exactly.

The truth can be a real eye opener, and we may try to hide from it, but idiocracy is upon us.

1- People can't agree on who (which people, specifically) the real problem is.

2- People can't agree on what the solution is.

3- People can't agree upon who will/should carry out the executions of those responsible.

I think it's better that everyone in the US be required to watch that movie IN ITS ENTIRETY before they are allowed to vote.

It might get them to realize we are there.

But then again- most fall on the left side of the bell curve, so it would go over their head.

Only one real solution.

I voted 3 weeks ago here.  Went to the precinct (a grade school nearby). showed ID and passport , and was handed a ballot with about 14 parties and loads of names under each one,  they also gave me a red pencil.  Went into booth, and marked one.  came out and dropped it in box.  All the while 3 people watching me like a hawk.

Wife did the same.  She asked me which party I voted for and which name,  I told her the ''Animal Rights party and a name that sounded cool.  She said,  GREAT, so did I.

Hey how old is your wife. I knew a guy like 60 some years old he met a couple of nice women in Nederland. Sounded nice and younger like 40 something. Some German Women are too much like Prussian Fighters, but met a couple nice ones 10 years ago. Only met a couple women from nederlands and they were much younger than me.

But you wife might be from States?

I used to have a big thing for European women, but never really got off the ground since I hated my Job and people at Job... but mostly the Job.

Here is a better idea.  Turn off TV and all media for the whole day,  Sit down and write in LONG HAND on a piece of paper goals or things you want to realize within the next year, Date it,  Then say some kind of prayer.,  and hide that paper somewhere safe.  Then a year from the day you wrote it, open it up and see what happened.

Then reflect back and see if anything that you accomplished or didn't accomplish had anything to do with who was President,

It occurs to me my previous comment about voting for the number 4 was wrong.

Instead I want to make clear my vote goes to only one man.

MARTIN VAN BUREN.

Yes.  He died in 1862.  But there is no reason under the law that he cannot run, 

"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at
the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office
of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not
have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a
Resident within the United States." - U.S. Consitution

 

Imagine it!

- He would effectively veto everything by refusing to sign any Law.  Congress would have to achieve a veto-proof majority to do anything!

- He would issue not one executive order.

- He would not fill any government bureacratic posts himself, but perhaps his runningmate could pick them by lottery.

- He would effectively bring the troops home by refusing to sign their deployment order renewals.

-  He would sign no offensive, sovereignty-diffusing treaties.

- He would close overseas bases as their leases expired, by refusing to sign for them.

 

VOTE FOR MARTIN VAN BUREN!  HE'S O.K.!

Old Kinderhook! (O.K.)

I've voted for Nobody for many years and I will continue to vote for Nobody in every election.

In spite of that, or perhaps because of it, I will not give up and will continue to vote for Nobody in every election until Nobody is elected.

On that glorious day, with Nobody in office, perhaps we will get our freedom and our country back.

When our fellow Americans participate in the national electoral system of fraud and corruption they give the elitists permission to continue to abuse our freedoms and steal our wealth. Your vote for "Nobody" is courageous and true to the original spirit of independence.  I also do not give this vile system of central government the legitimacy it does not deserve. The long journey back to liberty begins with the first step. You have taken it and so have I because we are two Americans who are not afraid. Perhaps more will see the reality that Washington is the evil of the world and therfore must be allowed to collape so the country can start over.

God bless your resolve.

You want to f*#k with the NSA? You want f*#k with Congress? This is what you do...

Put your Congress Members contact info in your phone. With this information at your fingertips you can contact all three in 6-8 min. Every week you call/email and DEMAND CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM.

The NSA will be angry because they have an active populace. How can they dig up dirt on all these critical thinkers. They like the professional campaigners- they already have their teeth sunk into them. The NSA prefers an apathetic group- they don't want you to be an activist. They want you thinking all you have control over is where to make the mark on the ballot. They don't want you to have a say on whose name appears on the ballot.

Those supposed servants on the other hand, at least the majoity of them, don't want to give up schmoozing with their financiers. People like the Clintons and the Bush family love this part. Once the requests start to snowball self preservation will set in and they will turn on their financiers. They will resist but keep DEMANDING CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM.

Every one has 6-8 min a week. Call while you are on the toilet if you are pressed for time. Let your voice and other end be heard. Apathy is for pussies. Activism is the new sexy.

I didn't say they work or care about us. I asked if anyone  wanted to mess with them. Everyone wastes 6-8 min a week on some inane activity. Why not waste it by messing with the NSA/Congress. They want you to throw your hands up in the air in exasperation. They want you to feel hopeless and accept things as just the way they are. Why not clog their inbox/their messages. Why wouldn't you want to feel good about letting them know you know that the only thing that got them their position was the trillionaires and billionaires.

Go ahead and do nothing then- I will continue to call. At least my children see me trying to do something. At least my children know I didn't lay down and take it.
