Sick of Bush? Sick of Kerry? There IS an alternative.

Basically, if you live in a state that's guaranteed to vote a certain way, vote for dean. IE: The Universe would implode if Virginia did not vote republican, or New York democratic. Since it's unlikely that a few votes are going to make a difference there, why not vote for Dean as a write in? If he gets just 5% of the popular vote he'll qualify for federal matching funds in 2008, guaranteeing him campaign funds in that election.
This is basically what a friend of mine and I came up with after a long political discussion, when we compared notes and realized most of the people we know are going to vote for Kerry, not because they like Kerry but because they want Bush out of office. This is not the way American politics should work. This is not the way it HAS to work. We don't need to be stuck choosing the lesser of two evils. If we put some hard work into it, we can get a candidate into office that actually has a chance of doing some positive good for this country. It'll take time, but it's about time we sent a message to the major parties: we're sick of this, and we want the system to change. [/rant].
