Right -- if it's important, it's worth working for. I don't disagree with you there at all.

However, not voting isn't going to abolish the 2 party system. So I disagree with your basic premise, if I understand it correctly.

On presidential elections, briefly, who cares who is president other than for Supreme Court nominations (which are in themselves a sufficient reason to vote, even if for the lesser of two evils). Damn president, what does he do anyway? Just a damn figurehead, just one person so those among us who can't understand collective responsibility can blame someone for stuff we don't like. It's a goofball position that doesn't take much brains, as evidenced by Reagan etc. So really. Why are you so exercised over the presidential elections?

Peace.
