Presidential elections since 1980 (Every election of my lifetime!)

Reagan/Bush vs. Carter/Mondale

Reagan/Bush vs. Mondale/Ferraro

Bush/Quayle vs. Dukakis/Bentsen

Bush/Quayle vs. Clinton/Gore

Clinton/Gore vs. Dole/Kemp

Bush/Cheney vs. Gore/Lieberman

Bush/Cheney vs. Kerry/Edwards

Obama/Biden vs. McCain/Palin

Obama/Biden vs. Romney/Ryan

For 2016, I want none of the above. I'm tired of all of them, especially the Reagan/Bush/Clinton/Obama cabal which exists to promote the War on Drugs, Free Trade, Big Oil, the MIC, and other shady imperialist bullshit.

I voted for the lesser of two evils in every one of the elections you mention.

Not only that, I voted for the lesser of two evils in 1964 and 1976 (Nixon was so evil I'd have voted for anybody else).

I'm with you, I'm not voting for anybody with ties to the last 40 years worth of crap.
