Found this article on Obama on the front page of Tribe from a post in the Politics tribe and felt to repost it along with further sharings.

I still say a vote of 'no confidence' written in is the way to go.

NONE OF THE ABOVE! in '08   ~8D

Hey, guess what?

In looking for a pic to go with this post, I found this: NOTA

And this: vote none of the above

Hmm, and this: noneoftheabove-tn.org

Looks like it's catching on...

None of the above
Bill offers voters a way to put action in dissatisfaction: force a new election

Wow, and it looks like Republicans are in support of NOTA:

AP Poll: GOP Pick Is 'None of the Above'

Another vid from TIME CNN:
Jesse Ventura: U.S. Ballots Should Offer “None of the Above”Monday, April 7th, 2008

Interestingly enough this link leads to a Bush speech, so here is an article:
Maverick wants none of the above for president

Now let's here from the man who started it all, Mr. Monty Brewster!

Vote None of the Above (Richard Pryor - Brewsters Millions)

If only Richard were here today...I can only imagine how fun this could be!

Now realize though that I am not necessarily advocating voting in the Presidential (s)elections, the last two were still most likely 'stolen'.

But I do feel that if enough people are in communication about NOTA and there is either a ballot measure that allows for this or enough people that refuse to turn out, it will be all to obvious that the current system is not in favor and we will be that much closer to real change.

And if you want to check out my first blog post on NOTA, here it is:
By way of deception shall you make war ~or~ None Of The Above!

Peace, Hugs and NOTA!
