Or vote for a fill in candidate; thats any1 you want.
 
Sorry I don’t follow you. I’m just saying if any1 feels that none of candidates running meet their approvals they can vote for a fill in if they like. Say there is some1 you feel would make a great president. He is pro-life and meets all opinions about taxes, war, energy, ect… but he’s not on the ballet. Sure it may seem dumb your voting for some1 who will most likely not win but just think that at least you gave your support to some1 you feel is best. Just a thought. Not trying to argue. Never by a long shot would I ever encourage any here to vote pro-choice.

I’m talking about if that candidate was already the nominee for the other party and you want the weaker candidate from the opposing party to win the primary or at least keep them in the race longer to improve the other party’s nominee’s chances.
 
I’m sorry I was replying to David Poem. Forgive me. I know what you mean about imporving other parties nominee chances. To me it seems possible that it would weaken the opposing parties chances being they would be so divided but its still somthing I wouldn’t do. Can you still weaken thier party’s chances without votiing for the weaker candidate?

  1. Not all moral issues have the same moral weight as abortion and euthanasia. For example, if a Catholic were to be at odds with the Holy Father on the application of capital punishment or on the decision to wage war, he would not for that reason be considered unworthy to present himself to receive Holy Communion. While the Church exhorts civil authorities to seek peace, not war, and to exercise discretion and mercy in imposing punishment on criminals, it may still be permissible to take up arms to repel an aggressor or to have recourse to capital punishment.** There may be a legitimate diversity of opinion even among Catholics about waging war and applying the death penalty, but not however with regard to abortion and euthanasia**.

As has been noted by many you seem to worship big words more than anything else. Do you have any idea how foolish you look when you make posts like the above?. I am sure that it is impressive as heck when bandied about in your dorm BUT in the real world people just roll their eyes.

Some people can get away with it-Bill Buckley being the best example-but with all due respect you aint no Bill Buckley

I said something similar about voting for a certain political party and was accused of being filled with hatred and bile. I have since made a decision to give the accuser the attention he deserves and no longer respond to his posts.
