I don't get the whole "you're an idiot for voting against your own interests" argument. If something is right, it shouldn't really matter whether it hurts or helps you personally.

Student to young to vote compared to the KKK for wearing a pink Romney/Ryan 2012 shirt to school. I don't know which one to call a pinko commie.

Good, she should be ridiculed for agreeing with/supporting a person she doesn't know shit about, and getting defensive about it. And on the other hand; she doesn't deserve to vote in her life if she truly agrees that the government should be telling her what she can and cannot do with her vagina. I doubt she's educated on any issue, though, so I'd ridicule her worse than the teacher. Sorry. Don't wear a banner for someone who's got policies that are directly contrary to the beliefs and wants of America and you won't get stupid people like her teacher saying such things to her.
Yes, she deserves to be mocked! I mean, 16? Come on, she might as well be one of the fetuses she thinks are alive! Everyone knows that you can't express a political view until you're 18!

I mean, seriously, "directly contrary to AMERISSSA", is she an expert on that either? Why would she even wear a shirt like that? She should have known going against the deeply ingrained beliefs (apparent to everyone except her!) of her own free god-fearing country would have attracted stupid people! I vote we burn her at the stake!!

Democrats For Romney.

That was the single greatest use of mitten and glove metaphor in the history of the human race.

And another naive young male discovers libertarianism and think's it's special.

Spoiler alert: Libertarianism is nothing but corporate shills who are always MIA when social issues come up.

I may be a libertarian, if the candidates weren't such fucking money-grubbing, right-wing-pandering, batshit crazy hypocrites. I'll stick to my "unaffiliated" label.

Might as well make use of the site, though. You know how polls explode on this forum.

I side the most with Mitt Romney on science issues.
WHAT?! I said yes on stem cells, evolution, and space exploration. How the hell does Romney support those?

Only 36 percent, though.

I guess all the candidates are anti-science.

... Why am I not surprised?

Maybe it's a bad idea to reduce complex political issues to yes/no questions?  Please agree or disagree without explanation.

Always check the "additional options" button. It has a bunch more under it that should really be displayed in the first place.

I read this as anti-semitic. It's 2am, maybe I should go to bed.
