Please name for us another candidate for president or vice president who has failed to vote in elections as much as Dick Cheney. Come on, why not admit that missing 14 out of the last 16 elections is pitiful! And why do you folks keep ignoring the clear and obvious fact that Cheney didn't even grab an absentee ballot for the Republican's most recent primary. That's not a local election, it's a national election. Dave, please answer this: Isn't voting in national, state and local elections a role model example for young folks? (NO) Don't they teach this in high school social studies courses all throughout America? think back to how voting was impressed upon you during your younger years. (I DON'T THINK THAT THE STATE RUN SCHOOLS NECESSARILY TEACH THIS. I WAS NOT IMPRESSED. THE CONSTITUTION IMPRESSED ME MUCH MORE) Now compare that to what Dick cheney failed to do. It's, in a word, disgusting. He's asking people to vote for him, but he wouldn't vote for others. I WONDER WHY THEY DID NOT PUT THAT IN THE CONSTITUTION (that you have to vote before you can run for elected office) THEY MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN.
