James, just curious, do you only have 2 checkboxes on the ballot? Or are things like over here, the smaller players may be voteable but have zero chance anyway, so just as good as not existing at all?
There are other candidates listed. Usually too small in terms of support to have any real chance. There is even a block where one can 'write in' a candidate not listed.
I suppose I could write in my own name. However, if I did that, there would be a chance, a really infinitesimally small chance, that some unforeseen set of events could make me the winner. I don't think that I want the stress that would bring with it. The President must work with congress. While I believe that compromise is a useful concept, I do not see that the members of Congress do so.
