I get what lzppjb is saying, though. While I think everyone should vote, they should be informed. I really have to roll my eyes at the idea of voting becoming some trendy thing to do just so you can say you did, without much meaning behind it. We have too many meaningless trends these days already. I'm not saying voting is worthless or unimportant of course. I'm just wishing people put more thought into it and did their homework a little more, and, relied less on emotion for their decision. All that said, I disagree with restrictions to voting, which in the end up hurting American citizens. We already have pathetic turnouts without discouraging people even more. Americans are a lazy bunch. There were something like 9+ million Texans this time who didn't vote. And those were just the registered ones. There are approximately another 8 million of legal voting age who aren't even registered to vote.

Anyway, I'm ok with these people not voting. I can't believe some people can be so daft.
