I still believe that voting independent like Keith did is not the same as voting for Trump or not voting at all. 

Hi Nigel,

I disagree.

It is not the same. Just as wearing a fig leaf is not the same as being naked. But it may as well be.

A lot of military people think they can be apolitical while being religious, as if the lines aren’t blurred. Just ask the MFFR foundation.

Allow me to rephrase: 

A loaded question is still a loaded question. I would have still voted the same way I did. I'm done with the two parties of extreme.

In a winner-take-all system. voting for a no-hope candidate is a wasted vote.

You shouldn't feel that way - at least you voted. :)

You should really travel outside of the US to see that really only one of those parties is extreme. Just about anywhere else, the dems would be seen as slightly to the right of center.

Hi John,

As I have posted numerous times, it is almost always a choice of the lesser of the two evils.  I have never & will never vote for a 3rd party candidate -> a wasted vote.

And, this last time around, it ensured success for Trump.

So, that begs the question:  Is that what they really wanted?
