<<I personally think that there should be an easier way for people to actually register a "None of the Above" vote other than not registering at all or staying away from the polls. >>

For once we agree on something. I also find it vile that Gore team is trying to get ALL the votes where there is no vote for President marked.

<<The big question is, did the same 50%(roughly) stay away in every election?>>

Truth is at any given time there are many people that are not eligible to vote living in the US and part of our population on the census. The number of "high tech" workers living & employed currently in the US on a temporary status are the stuff of legend. At any given point there are many people in the process of becoming US citizens but can not yet vote. There are members of the German Air Force(& their families) at a base in New Mexico(before anyone asks, no I have no problem with it). Students from abroad attending our universities and the list just goes on & on. Felons.

Point is, NEVER will all of age living in the US be eligible a vote.
