In the following quote:
I think this country is f.ucked either way. It really doesn't matter who is in office.
you're saying it does not matter who is in office. The same"fkd" result will be the outcome. You're saying right here that elections don't matter. If a Democrat had been in office ,then Scalia wouldn't have been nominated. You then say that the issues the Supreme Court decides (such as civil rights, abortion , civil liberties etc.) aren't as important as other issues. That's only because you take them for granite. Get enough Conservatives on the Court, and see how long you have civil liberties. It won't be for long. They would be like Turkey(block any internet sites they deem offensive...like about 1000...including YOUTUBE ETC.) They'd outlaw abortion etc. Actually I am o.k. with that, but many people aren't. If HEALTH CARE is an important issue to you then how can you say it doesn't matter who is the President? One party wants to do something about healthcare, and the other wants to do very little(other than healthcare savings accounts.) Again, the 2 people running for President aren't close on their views about healthcare. I would think it would matter a great deal which one is elected.
