think about it

A president's pension currently is $191,300 per year, until he is 80 years old.

Assuming the next president lives to age 80. Sen. McCain would receive ZERO pension as he would reach 80 at the end of two terms as president. Sen. Obama would be retired for 26 years after two terms and would receive $4,973,800 in pension.

Therefore it would certainly make economic sense to elect McCain in November.

How's that for non partisan thinking???

Other than the main reson for electing him being "he is not Obama" i found this quite entertaining.

It also tells me I really need to get into pollitics..this working gig is for suckers... i mean voters.

Since there is never a none of the above button in the voting both, I almost always end up voting against somebody, instead of voting for somebody.

Sad but true...

There is another option. By federal law, any person meeting the criteria is able to run for POTUS. In 2004, I didn't like any of the options available. My solution to this is I wrote my name in to the federal ballot & voted for myself. As a matter of public record, there is 1 vote for my name for the office of POTUS. I'm fairly certain this is what I am doing this year.

KC,
Good Idea, How do you do that? we vote on machines down here in LA.
1. make your selection for all elections on your ballot (push button next to candidate/Issue)
2. Check your votes.
3. Press "Cast Vote" Button DING your done
no place to write anything
It is all very fancy Schmancy. Probably freakin rigged, too

By law they must have a way to enter a write in ballot. In NJ, we have the electronic machines to but they have a key board on them. The keyboard only becomes active when you press the "Write In Ballot" button.
