I would feel like an irresponsible Libertarian if I didn't engage in a little civil disobedience to support what I believe in: true fiscal conservatism, social liberalism, and the right to vote for the candidate of my choice.

I have never voted before, I just turned 21 and my husband has been in the Navy so we moved frequently and in 2004 I was 17, so now that I registered I get to vote for who becomes president, I can't vote for who I want. It's ridiculous, makes no sense to me. How can the young adults of America be heard if they can't even vote for a candidate that they want? Considering it's not Obama or McCain.. which I definitely do not want either. This is not the America I was born in. I’m very angry with Oklahoma.

Vote in the official elections AND vote online in the secure "shadow poll." Then, we can compare the results of one with the other, as a way of keeping the official elections honest. I'm getting pretty tired of the rigged and/or rickety official election procedures. Perhaps a competitive, fully open and public, yet private-sector elections mechanism can help restore faith in our election results.

Sounds like a plan...except whenever I vote, I will need to vote for congress...so I can't really do that. I like your thinking.
