I've participated in the elections process for various private and government positions. I'd vote but largely my perception is that it didn't matter much. Things don't really change. The people are largely figure heads and the organizations have too much inertia for one person to make a difference.

Although late in life, I've become painfully aware that voting for that one person can make a significant difference. There will always be candidates that are worthless at best.

But after Obama, the potential for Hillary and now with Trump in office, it's very obvious that voting does matter and one man makes all the difference.

Young people take heed. Your vote matters. Don't be a low info voter. Pay attention and vote. Your actions today is the butterfly that defines the future.

You really want the newly indoctrinated, next-gen GDC socialists voting?

I just saw an article that indicated Millenials are generally more conservative than Gen X or Baby Boomers were at the same age.
