I won't take the poll simply because I've seen far too many discussion boards quickly go to Hell in a handbasket when people started "sharing" their political views.
The old adage: "never discuss religion or politics if you want keep pleasant company" is entirely too true...

I can't stand the two-party system.

I will add a fourth option that may be more suited to those of you that don't like the two party system.

I'll go ahead, I wont discuss it after this, but I will give my opinions. My views are mainly libertarian, so you'd expect me to vote republican, but due to a few issues very dear to my heart, and important to me(gay rights, abortion, peace), so i vote democrat

So just vote and don't get into why. That's all he asked for

Okay. I'll bite: Homer

!!
I think Homer J. Simpson adequetly represents the duality inherent in all people, therefore, he's got my vote.

I've often described myself as one of the following:
"Liberal Republican"
"Conservative Democrat"
That pretty much sums me up, for the two-party explanation of my views.

I think Homer Simpson is smarter than our current president, cm'on he invented a time machine out of a toaster oven.

For voter registration, I put Democrat, but that's because it was the first on the list.
I don't think any of the parties completely agree with what I think should be going on.
I want to start my own political party made up of myself and a few advisors (whom will be appointed by necessity of their respective departments). I would have the rockinest party the world has ever seen.

Don't forget that he toured with Smashing Pumpkins, he's been to outer space, and he won a Grammy.

And he beat up GWB's dad, designed a car, started a business, was a missionary, and still has time to be a few steps above a deadbeat dad.

We have the Green Party here too. Ralph Nader has run for president more times than most people have.

I believe in the Monarchy. I'm the King and you all need to kneel before me and bow to my will.

This is true. . . although his popularity sometimes wanes. . . .
. . . he was cast aside in favor of an inanimate carbon rod.

I consider myself practical libertarian (I understand the need for some infrastructure) with liberal social and conservative crime and financial views.
And I would vote Homer because he's the candidate most like me.
Mmm. Bacon.

I voted Republican, and from the discussions I've had with fellow board members, I might be the only one in my age group voting to re-elect Bush

Yep, that's right...
