Hi Michael! Occasionally, very occasionally, a third party or independent candidate wins. People of good intention are trying to infiltrate the major parties, but many more people are needed for this effort. Not bothering to vote is beside the point. Not bothering to get involved and go tho the party meetings is the real problem. You have to hold your nose and get involved in one or the other party. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
