I hate the process by which the "chosen" candidate is selected. Living in Alaska the Kerry decision is already made before I can cast my preference in this coming Saturday's Democratic caucus. I won't have the opportunity to vote for Kucinich, or Dean or Clark or Edwards because somebody else already decided it would be Kerry.

Kerry and Gephardt and Lieberman are typical good old boy politicians from Washington DC and I didn't want to vote for any of them. But I don't get a choice because I live in a state with only 3 electoral votes. And that's another of my gripes.

Why does my vote have to go through the Electoral College? Why can't I cast my vote for the candidate of my choice instead of losing it to the majority of Republicans in "the last frontier". I think its time for an honest one person, one vote for the highest office in the land.

No wonder so many people chose NOT to vote, the way the system works, their vote doesn't count even if they mark the ballot.
