If this has been talked up already, forgive me... I didn't see this posted elsewhere, unless you were talking about voting for Kucinich in GD just now...

http://www.independentprimary.com

Sure, I'd like Kucinich to get it, but let's do a fair count at a non-partisian site!

MMM

1. I'm not a big fan of sites that ask for personal information,
to take a survey...

2. I'm not either, but having been interested in Kucinich's campaign, I did give them my
ZIP code and e-mail. Call me trusting, I don't get any more than the usual filtered junked through my Macintosh, :shrug:

4. correct...
And in this case you expose who you are going to vote for. That is swept up by the 'sipon' as it crosses the wire and in the end; someone you wish didn't exist gets a list with your name on it (the person may be a gov agent or a private hack, it doesn't really matter). A quick background check and suddenly he find few legal ways to harass or distract you on election day just to make sure you don't make it to the polls; or they find a way to challenge your ballot; or something worse. Would anyone go to those lengths? That all depends on who you are, who you know and what the stakes in the election are. In my experience, there appears to be no shortage of campaign volunteers who are willing engage in dirty tricks.

5. Interesting though, nebenaube
I'm pretty sure the NSA will have more confirmation of what my intentions are, as well as those "marketing calls" that have suddenly been flooding the likes of Thom Hartman (his discussion today). I got 4 calls today before voting on this web site.

I figure we've more open books through what our fingers are doing in this discussion group for those folks to "lock and load".

On the other hand.... "they can go screw themselves". :-)
