I don't go around telling people who to vote for. If you support a candidate's positions, then you should vote for him. If you support Barack's ideas, then vote for him. McCain, then vote for him. I am voting for neither. Even though my candidate will not win, I'd rather vote for someone I fully support then vote for someone just because they have a chance at winning. I look towards the independents because I know where they stand. The republicans and democrats only care about hugging the middle in order to gain the most votes. They have no real ideas or solutions. They just say want everyone wants to hear so they can get more votes than the other party.
I've been asked by many people, "Why are you throwing your vote away?" Frankly, I think that if you vote for someone who you don't really know/support but who you know has a possibility of winning or if you vote along party lines without actually thinking and judging for yourself, then it is you who throw your vote away.
