This year's presidential election is something he will most likely vote. It's something major alot of people do. In the 3 and a half years between presidential elections, there isnt much else to vote for. There are local elections, but turnout to them is absurdly low anyways.
I'm not trying to say no one votes in between elections, its just that people don't care much about local elections.

Michael Moore is more than just the average person. He is an opinion maker and wields great influence in politics. He is opinions and actions need to coincide if he is to be taken seriously and he has a responsiblility to do as he tells you to do. Not doing so makes him a hypocrit.
You can't tell everyone to go out and change the world, and then only follow through on your own words when you feel like it.
Well thats my opinion, anyway. And for the record, I vote on every election.
