Just checking to see who everyone voted for in 2004!

If it is #7 (Clark, Dean, Edwards, Kucinich, Sharpton, Lieberman, Gephardt, Braun, or Graham), please say who.

I was too young to vote but I probably would have voted for Bush. :( I was only too young by a few weeks too!
 
Bush-Cheaney

I cant say im proud of that vote at all. It was when i was younger and didnt follow politics.
 
lol so the bars that show how many votes people got, Bush is Red, and Kerry is blue. Just found that amusing. :):p
 
W.

I had a summer term oral communication class that summer. When the time came around for a persuasive speech, the topic I chose was "why you should vote for George W.Bush" and some other guy did the same for Kerry. Our teacher had the great idea to set ours up as a debate. We had to use 3 visual aids and I got this 6 foot cutout of W. and placed it between us for the debate. It was quite fun, but looking back I was a misguided soul.
 
I was too young to vote but would have likely voted for Kerry. I will vote for the very first time in the Florida Republican Primary.....for Ron Paul of course.
 
I voted for Bush because I didn't trust Kerry.

I know, I know....

And I never once thought of voting for anyone else....

I questioned the war, but figured Bush had more facts than I did.....although I was sick of it by 2004... I figured we'd be leaving soon, and Kerry didn't really offer anything different there.

And I didn't really realize what the Patriot Act was. That was actually one of the things that woke me up. I was on political autopilot, but I always believed in the Constitution, I just wasn't paying attention. I figured it was their job to follow it, so they would be doing so, within reasonable interpretive boundaries.

Nader. I knew I was anti-war, but didn't yet begin to learn about economics.
 
Badnarik. It was the first time I could vote. I identified myself as a republican at the time, but was so sick of the propaganda and FUD going on with Iraq & the Patriot Act that I gave a big FU to the GOP & started voting my conscience.
 
I didn't vote that day. It would have been my first election to vote in, but looking back I didn't even register to vote, therefore I couldn't have. :-(
I was one of those fools who thought I was far and away from that whole mess(F*** you Keynes!!!).

1996: Bob Dole <---I was a young adult raised to vote for anything with an "R" by their name.
2000: Pat Buchanan <---Had become so pissed at how the Republicans rigged the primaries by stacking all of them so only Bush could compete...plus once Bush started calling himself a "compassionate conservative" I knew that just meant big government for "conservative" pork.
2004: Michael Peroutka <---I had completely left the Republican party at this point.
2008: Chuck Baldwin <---I voted for Ron Paul in the Republican caucuses. After he failed to get the nomination I am proud to say that due to my involvement with the CP I would have been one of the 10 Presidential Electors for Baldwin had he carried Minnesota.

Too young. Just shy of 15, but I probably would have voted Bush at the time. My how I've changed over the years.
