Re: The Treaty of Lisbon has been ratified
Yes, but fortunately, again, there wil always be a bunch of people who think like you so people like me dont have to care. And besides, it's not like i can change everyone else's mind and make them go vote.

Re: The Treaty of Lisbon has been ratified
Which is quite true in the U.S ... When your younger, your all like "I want to go vote!! He shouldn't... blah blah blah etc, etc..." but by the time you reach the age of legally being able to vote your like "Meh, what is the point of it now?"
Re: The Treaty of Lisbon has been ratified
tnhats because people arent educated in politics properly if they were they would understand the need to vote and to have your say
Re: The Treaty of Lisbon has been ratified
Yeah, but majority vote doesn't usually come to anything. When it all comes down to it, it's the Electoral Colleges with their special electorial votes that get to choose.

Re: The Treaty of Lisbon has been ratified
Quite. For us, we only have so much in the way of public voting...

So that's how they're getting Turkey in.

Or the other EU nations with morals and any goal other than making us more capable in a global willy waving competition. Besides, they're alredy in NATO, so we'd win those competitions anyways.
