I am writing to express my concern with a statement made in Students, experts split on impact of VP Choice (SN 8/24).
In that article, MSU student Jon Libby stated that sometimes you need to choose the lesser of two evils for president. This made me literally stop dead in my tracks. It is exactly that kind of mentality that is hurting the American political system. Instead of students backing a candidate they believe in, they just choose the one that appears to be less evil.
I just want to say that there are more than two choices, and I will never force myself to choose between the lesser of two evils. Libby can vote for his Republicrat, but I am voting my conscience. I support Nader/Gonzalez in 2008.
