2008 Obama (on Nov. 4th)
2004 Kerry
2000 Gore
1996 Clinton
1992 Clinton
1988 Bush
2004 Kerry
2000 Nader (if I were in Fla. I’d feel bad, but my state went for Gore w/o my vote)
1996 Clinton
1992 Clinton
1988 Dukakis
1984 --I honestly don’t remember
1980 Anderson?
1976 Carter (I think…didn’t like him much)
1972 McGovern
2008 Obama
The cool thing about this year’s election is we’ll either have a black prez or we’ll have a female VP, hopefully the former.
I honestly don’t think McCain/Palin are all that bad. Not voting for them, but think they’d do a decent job.
'84- Mondale
'88- Fulani (I was young and wanted to save the world)
'92- Clinton
'96- Clinton
'00- Nader (I wasn’t happy with what the 'Pubs or the Dems had to offer)
'04- Kerry (Didn’t want to give another vote to “W”)
'08- will vote for Obama (doing volunteer work for the local Democratic party too)
I’m really stoked about Obama this year, but I would like to see a viable third party emerge to breathe life back into our election process.
1980-Reagan (I lost my mind, really)
1984-Dick Gregory (write in)
1988-Gregory (again)
1992-Clinton
1996-Gregory
2000-Nader
2004-Badnarik
2008-not sure yet
1992 - Clinton
1996 - Clinton
2000 - Gore
2004 - Kerry
2008 - Obama
Sent in my ballot today.
1988: Ron Paul (not for any love of the man-I didn’t know a thing about him- but I loathed Reagan and didn’t like Dukakis much better, my state Alabama’s gonna go Republican always anyway, and I thought a third party might be a good idea [he was the Libertarian candidate])
1992: Clinton (though I’ll admit to an embarassing flirtation with Ross Perot briefly in '92 before he proved to be a nutjob and the gestapo like way he treated his employees and other scandals came out. In a way he was a predecessor of Obama and Palin in demonstrating just how sick people are of D.C. B.S. and career insiders)
1996: sat it out- don’t remember why exactly, save that I had something to do and it was a foregone conclusion that 1- AL was gonna go Republican but 2- Bob Dole had snowball/hell chance on the national level
2000- Gore (not terribly enthusiastic, but didn’t dislike him either- was voting for him as much as voting against Bush). Earlier that year I’d supported McCain in the primaries and would have in the election; he’s ironically the one and only Republican PotUS candidate I’ve ever supported.
2004- Kerry (with no enthusiasm at all, totally voting against Bush [knowing it was futile in GA])
2008- Obama, with real enthusiasm for the first time since '92.
U.S. elections?
1992 - Clinton.
1996 - Clinton.
2000 - Gore.
2004 - forgot to apply for absentee ballot.
2008 - decided not to vote.
Laziness, plus I don’t care for either candidate, so I really couldn’t decide for whom to vote.
I moved to a different county in summer of 2004, but went and voted in my old county in the '04 election. I’ve been meaning to go get registered in my current county for 4 years, and just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
I think you had to be registered by 10/6 to vote, and I’m sure my registration in my old county has lapsed by now.

Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Obama. Hmmm…I’m seeing a pattern emerging here.
I’ve posted this before & even those who haven’t seen it will in no way be surprised.
80 & 84: Reagan
88 & 92: Dad Bush
96: Dole
00 & 04: W
08: McCain
I am disappointed that I’ve never been able to vote for President Jack Kemp.
1976 - Ford
1980 - Reagan
1984 - Reagan
1988 - Bush 41
1992 - Bush 41
1996 - Dole
2000 - Bush 43
2004 - Bush 43 (I think he’s an idiot but more tolerable than either Gore or Kerry)
2008 - ? (Like since 2000, I’ve concerns about either candidate.)
