24. Who said anything about taking away anyone's right to vote? If I don't like an anti-Democrat

candidate I reserve the right to express my totally disdain for the Green's objective in helping to elect trump. If it had not been for Nader (the Green Party) the other factors you mention would not have been decisive! But regardless of what happened in 2000, we don't ignore or excuse the Green's anti-Democrat behavior, they are agent provocateur for the puke's efforts to elect a disaster for our country. Fuck the Greens and every negative action they take in helping the pukes elect a threat to our country's survival as POTUS.
