Check the poll title.

It says "Would you vote for Bush?"

It does not say "Are you going to vote for Bush?"

Key word being would...

I am now just old enough to vote, though I haven't registered yet, better do that. I will vote democratic though, so my answer to this poll is "no".

I wouldn't vote for him, but I think he has a good chance to get re-elected.

I went with yes for a couple of reasons. But it was a really tough decision (which is one of the reasons I will not be voting in the real election). My main reason was because I think that all this mess can only be mended but the person that has been orchestrating it from the beginning (finish what you begin), but I don't know all the politics of it so I am choosing not to put up a real strong argument.

If I was old enough to vote, I would always vote. I would never just "not do it" becuase it was "too hard a decision." One reason I would always vote is that its a right given to us that people fight and die for every single day. Since its that important, Im going to vote. Its what makes democracy go round.

The second reason I would always vote, is so that I can complain if the guy I dont vote for wins and he does a bad job. So lets say you dont vote, then you have no right what-so-ever to complain. I like complaining, so Im going to vote so that I can complain.

So if I were you, I would just go vote for some guy running independently, that you know is going to loose. This way your not throwing away your right earned through the life of others, and you'll be able to complain in the end.

but if i go and vote for someone that i know absolutely nothing about i am jeopardizing the right given to me because i am expected to make good decisions with such things, if i make bad decisions it affects other people.

That's like asking me would I vote for Chirac. Hell no, but last time I checked, my opinion has no say in that communist land.

So when you get these polls that have 3:1 against Bush, and then he wins by a landslide, you realize something is wrong. Not saying he'll win by a landslide, but I haven't seen too many Canadians favor Bush, so the poll is stacked against him.

Given an economy beginning to go down hill, and the largest attack on this country since 1941. The real question is, What Would Gore Do? Flee to Canada

Yes. That's EXACTLY like what its asking. (that wasnt sarcasm, by the way.) Your opinion wouldnt have any say in the real world, but if someone got on here and made a poll of that, they would be asking WOULD you vote for him. Canadians might not be able to vote in the real world, but this poll is asking EVERYONE if they WOULD vote for Bush.
