Huh? The Tea Party is a good example of how to unify people behind ideas - exactly what I was talking about. And I never said I didn't vote. What I find stupid is the idea that you have some kind of obligation to vote just to voice your opinion. In particular, voting for 3rd party candidates that are not well known enough to possibly win is stupid. There may be exceptions if a respectable showing is part of a strategy.
