[QUOTE="ShadowSDNLI:1324068"]Agreed that the President has very limited powers. I don't agree that means the choice is meaningless, because if the President doesn't give a shit about the rules and wants to seize additional power WAY beyond what has always been considered reasonable (Nixon, GWBush), then they do have the power to fuck us over way worse (well at least in Bush's case; Nixon's corruption didn't actually also involve policy failures that affected the country), so it's worth voting for President just to for the less power hungry, more humble person, to the extent such a choice ever exists. It didn't as much in 2000 and 2004, which is why I voted third party, but in this election it's a pretty glaring contrast on that point I think. I also agree with you that individual liberties are always a concern when it comes to government, and there's never a day in the future where that will end. There's a balance between individual liberties and social responsibility that has been the debate in this country since it was founded, and it must never stop. It's just weird having instead of someone credible like Ron Paul having Mitt Romney as the spokesperson for individual liberties when in example after example, he doesn't believe in them. And then weirder defriending people for not supporting the guy. That's all I'm saying. [/QUOTE]
