These are the results of a CNN.com poll. What do yall think about the choices for president? Do yall think that our system is flawed in that we have so few choices of people to lead our country? And are yall happy with the choices?

Am I happy with my choices? HELL NO.
Everyone says we are voting for "the lesser of two evils." However harsh it may be, its really true. There is no really good candidate. Just candidates who are slightly better than other candidates.

I'm happy voting for Bush, he's not perfect, but nobody is. Though I have contemplated voting for Badnarik, I feel comfortable voting for Bush, and I will do it proudly.

As im happy voting for Kerry (filled out my ballot today! ), but I would be much happier with John McCain running. Yeah, I would vote for him. He kicks ass.

I would never have chosen Kerry for the ballot- he is a good person, but not a good choice for President.

I think that there are always people who dislike the government. It's the case here in Holland. Balkenende is not very loved, also for the choices he makes.
But I think that Bush has taken it too far. He improves the lives of the rich people, lowers taxes. But the people who most need him, like poor people, sick people, and the young, aren't in the advantage. (am I saying this ok?)
And I think, and this includes Holland, that a President is a very powerful man/woman. He or she should do things that will help the poor/sick/young people, because especially the young people, are the future of the country!
That is SO important! You're willing to do things about the here and now, but actually, that doesn't matter as much as the future. What kind of choices the president makes now, has much effect on the future. Therefor, if I was an American, I would vote Kerry.

No, everyone does NOT say that. Given, many people do. But many people don't, too.

GOOD JOB VOTING EARLY!
Wrong choice, but hey, you voted early.
