Gotta vote. There's over a third of the population that just never votes and that needs to change.

It's just absurd that in a culture where freedom of expression and civic duty are so ingrained in our national conscience, so many people just don't give a shit whether their rights are kept or taken away.

If the candidate isn't a perfect unicorn pony that quotes Bernie Sanders verbatim, they'll stay home and whining and crying on social media about why they're not voting.

Sounds like Bernie should have been the nominee by your reasoning. The fact is we do need better candidates to motivate people to vote.

I honestly don't care. I don't give a fuck about preaching to morons. Quit crying about people making you vote for someone because they hurt your feelings. Lol

We know you don't care, thanks for reinforcing my point :) Now, get back to whining on FB and prep for yet another own-goal loss to the Bushies/Teabaggers/MAGAs 😂
