Today's Agenda: Why Voting For President Is A Waste Of Time

              Around the country today, there are still millions of people who live under the false belief that their individual vote in the presidential election matters.  All throughout school, the teachers try and express to you the importance of voting in the election, how it's your 'Duty' as a citizen of this country to help decide the next leader of our nation.  Then, however,  you get to high school government, and you find out about a little thing called the "Electoral College," and then you look at the teacher in a confused way, trying to understand exactly what she was saying, I know I did.
            The Electoral College system, as I'm sure many of you already know about, is how the president of our country is really elected.  It consists of 538 voters, one for each memeber of congress, plus 3 for Washington D.C., and whos votes are distributed throughout the states based on population.  For example, California has the most with 55 voters, becasue we have the highest population.  That's why you see the presidential candidates mostly campaigning in the highly populated states, and not in, say, Wyoming.
             So my question is, WHY THE FUCK DOES EVERYBODY STILL VOTE??!!!!!  Out of the 300+ million Americans in this country, only 538 get a vote, and if any of you can remember the 2000 presidential election, America voted Al Gore into office.  Funny thing is....GEORGE W. BUSH'S RETARDED ASS WINS THE PRESIDENCY!!!!! 
               Apparently, our votes are only for the electoral college voters to take as considerations, which alot of the time, they do vote the way of the Americans, but there is no federal mandate or law that requires them to do so.  So basically, the entire country's immediate future rests in only a handfull of people, who are politicians, and will vote in whatever way they think is going to benefit them.  IT'S BULLSHIT!!! 
               People like me have caught on though.  This voter turnout for the 2008 presidential election was the highest it had been since 1968.  Out of 231,229,580 people of voting age in the country, only 132,618,580 actually voted.  That's a dismal 56%, and in 1968 it was still only 60.8%.(got these stats from http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0781453.html)  The reason it was so high in 2008 is probably because everyone was so damn excited to get Bush the fuck out there!!!
                In my opinion, 56% is still too high.  That means that over half of this country still thinks that what they vote matters.  Some of these electora voters are actually bound by pledge to voting only for a particular party, regardless of if every single person of their state votes opposite!!  What the fuck is wrong with this country.  This system is simply to make Americans believe that they a say in the election, because, im my opinion, If they didn't allow us to feel like we're apart the decision making in this country and simply just voted themselves like a straight Republic government, there would be a mutiny across the nation.  I wouldn't be surprised that years from now, American's are finally going to be smart enough to realize, and mass protest the electoral college system until it is removed from the constitution.
              I REFUSE TO VOTE FOR PRESIDENT, AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO, UNTIL THE DECISION RESTS IN THE HANDS OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ONLY!!!!  NOT IN THE HANDS OF GREEDY, POWER HUNGRY POLITICIANS WHO THINK THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK FOR YOU, ME, AND EVERY HARD WORKING AMERICAN THAT LIVES IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!
