No, I am not a Democrat. I am a Socialist. Registered as a Republican ,though, so I can vote in their primaries. Go Cruz! One less vote for Rubio, Walker, or Bush. :wave:


That's ok I am a republican and will vote as a Dem to vote for Bernie Sanders in order to cancel Billary and your vote.

I recall the first time I voted....1960 when I was 21 (used to be you had to be 21....how terrible we were to people at that time). I voted absentee while sitting in a quonset hut serving in the military. I recall almost every election after that, and also remember how honored I was to vote...to have what I considered such a great honor to be able to do.

Times sure have changed, not only in the rules to follow or not, but the attitude we seem to have about voting.

You must be a registered democrat on election day to cast your vote for Bernie Sanders. Florida has a closed primary.

Florida may not be that important in the 2016 cycle as we normally would be because of the legislature electing to go for the winner-take-all platform. The 99 electoral votes may help some candidate, but so many other states get to go ahead of Florida's primary on March 15th.

My first presidential vote was McCarthy vs Nixon. As a MA resident I was and am proud to have voted against Nixon. (Don't blame me, I voted for McCarthy). I would not be proud to have voted for our current president- and did not.

My favorite election was in NV when ACORN was found guilty of voter fraud by a Democratic AG whom I proudly helped elect.

Well, the good news is as you have gotten older, you have also gotten smarter.

Democrat ... Socialist? Six of one, and half dozen of the other.

ps have you informed your wife that voting as a non-citizen in a US federal election is a felony and subjects her to criminal prosecution? Would hate to see her get in trouble.
