Exactly! Regardless of *whom* you choose, the most important thing is to vote! The more people who vote, the better the process works. It's entirely possible that the existence of Nader (and the threat some perceive he represents) will cause more people to participate-- probably better for Kerry than Bush (Dems are notorious for being fair-weather voters).

My feelings about voting were fostered by my parents, who made me understand the right/privilege/importance of a single vote (one's own). Very immigrant-minded.

While I may not care for who is elected, I still support their legitimacy.
