Every presidential candidate lies. Obama and Romney have both thrown out dozens of lies in their ads and in their debates.

Eh. It's more of the question of choosing the lesser of the worst evils. Obama has done a wonderful job of breaking promises and and bringing success back below a snail's pace. In regards to who could handle the economy better at this point, I can't choose between either of them. It's a toss up. But Romney is a total flip-flopper. He threw away half of the country. He wants to take away birth control. He doesn't support the Lilly Ledbetter Act. He doesn't get the needs of the lower, or middle class. He doesn't even know what the poverty lines are. And just. Ugh. This guy rubs le annoying me in every wrong way... except for one. That le military needs moar funding. I know I'm all peace and love and shet, but our soldiers/veterans seriously need it. I:

I would never vote Romney. Not only what Sarrow said, but he also is way too flipping awkward around people to be a president. Plus I don't think he'll be elected because Obama's teh first black president
it's also not obama's fault he failed
anyone who went in after bush was going to fall over hard
Okay, do you have the courage to stand up in front of millions of people, knowing that there are millions more watching you through the TV screen, and then give a speech? Because I can't. Last year we did a thing about speeches for EXPO Leadership. I couldn't read a speech about pet rocks in front of a class of like 20 people.
Not only is this just kind of a stupid reason to bash someone for presidency, but the fact that Obama stutters and says "uh" a lot just turn your entire argument on its heels.
Secondly, what does Obama being black have to do with anything?
This is the stupidest thing that has ever...
I don't know if you noticed, but the Civil Rights Movement ended 44 years ago. In that time, race has become a really unimportant thing nowadays. People don't CARE that Obama is black now. People commented back when he became president that it was a milestone or whatever but NO.
NO IT'S NOT, REALLY.
And I want you to think about this right now, May.
Your preferred candidate is black, but suddenly pretend that Romney is a woman.
You'll still vote for Obama, right?
If not because you now want the first woman president, you should stop thinking about politics and go back to playing with My Little Ponies or something BECAUSE NO.
If Obama wins it's because people prefer his policies over Romney's, or because they really hate both candidates but they hate Romney more. Whatever reason, they're not going to vote for him because he's black.
AND YES
IT IS OBAMA'S FAULT THAT HE FAILED
I think everyone on the face of planet Earth is in agreement that Bush was a terrible president but Bush is not a convient label for all things bad in the world.

Yay. Ranting time.
May, you got your opinion out. You don't need to prove every single person who votes for some one else wrong like, "WE ALL HAVE TO VOTE FOR OBAMA ANYONE WHO DOESN'T IS STUPID."
No.
Personally, I believe Obama HAD his chance.
A four-years-worth of chances.
He messed it up. Like Sleepy said, it's really his fault. Now, I know this has nothing to do with politics, but for all you young kids who don't feel like worrying about this(I only half-care really .3.), did you know Obama has been trying for a long time, and still is trying, to get rid of Summer Vacation for kids? Bleh. Not really important, but it got my interest into politics.
Sure Romney wants to stop Birth-Control. For one, it doesn't always work. For another thing, there's a different kind of "Birth-control" He's not going to get rid of. However, it involves surgery that sort of "spays" humans, you might say x3 (Yes it is undo-able)
Seriously, if you don't want a kid, ever, get the surgery. If you don't want a kid TEMPORARILY, you could still get the surgery(but it costs money to get it undone later), OR JUST PLAIN DON'T TRY TO "HAVE A KID". The only thing that could get even a bit worse from doing the small thing of getting rid of birth-control, is the fact if some one got raped...Well there's nothing you could do about it except abortion or something, But I don't want to get into that O.o
ANYWAYS, GETTING OUT OF THAT TOPIC...I think Romney is right about giving the military some money, too. They need it D; People are dying too easily in Afghanistan, in my opinion. It's not good, even if they are willing to die for their country. Dying is never good :I More money to them would mean better defenses, soldiers, and weapons. Less deaths, too.
One last thing: Remember that everything both Obama and Romney have been promising(or lying in some views) don't come true in any way(Meaning those bigger things, like getting rid of summer vacation or birth-control) unless the idea is carried over to the congress and stuff .3. Presidents aren't the biggest authorities. We did a mini-voters thing in my school, where everyone voted, though the votes didn't count in reality, to see what most of the school was favoring. over 80% of my school chose Romney over Obama. I voted Romney :3 Argue with me if you like. This is just my opinion D:

Not that I want to start a huge debate here, but it's not "spaying" yourself, Storm. It's getting your tubes tied, basically (Google that, because I know you don't know what it means). And even that isn't 100% assurance you won't get pregnant. And it's not always reversible, no. The only 100% sure-fire way is to never have sex, ever, or take your entire uterus out. Some people use birth control for other reasons than birth. I have a friend who has seriously large and painful periods (lovely, huh?) and has to take birth control to lesser that ease. So do tons of other women. And honestly, hell, if a girl wants to have birth control because she likes sex, that's her problem, not anyone elses.
And when I said more money to military, I didn't mean so we could use it to advance war more. I meant it as, my dad is a 15-year veteran and is currently working as a minimum wage security guard. My uncle is an Iraqi veteran and has been living off of unemployment for the past few months before finally getting a job at a casino. As in (I have a shetload of family in the military. XD) My aunt is a veteran and her husband is currently serving. She has no benefits, he's being underpaid, and they're both having serious money problems right now. Care about the soldiers, yo. :I We have enough guns and shet.
Now, I'mma forget this topic existed before I start spoutin' moar shet, then Moon finds it, and then all hell erupts, and then it gets locked and we all flip tables.

okay, I lied. Moon reminded me of this vid. xDD
I think it's funny because my parents (republicans) and the chick (le democrat) staying with us went out of their way to stock up on booze tonight, in case the other party won. xD
