DiaryOfAWorm: Why I Did Not Vote


Many friends and family gave me the message today they were voting for President Obama, the “lesser of two evils.” I understand this message and I thanked them for their honesty. However, when it came down to it, in conscience, I could not vote the “lesser of two evils.” One of my friends send me an article US Elections: From the “Lesser to the Greater Evil” The Demise of Critical Liberalism that expresses some of my concerns about voting. However, I can best express why I did not vote by the pictures below of the children of Haiti, Pakistan, Palestine and the USA. “Lesser of two evils” does not sound bad but when I pictured the lesser evil in the faces of these children I knew in conscience of what I had to do. It was for the children why I did not vote.
