I won't discredit anyone's opinion, but I've voted in plenty of elections,
and it makes me sad to think that people EVER practice "lesser evil"
politics. The true practice of democracy means that you should only vote for
someone you truly believe in (and, after hearing his opinions on Elian and
missile defense, I could tell you I'd never vote for Gore, no matter how much
I hate Bush - it's Nader all the way). In fact, a better practice of
democracy means de-emphasizing these phony elections we have, and getting
involved in things like demonstrations, circulating petitions, direct action,
etc. But in any event, voting for someone who is "less bad" is just a damned
cop-out.
