Just my

My wife refuses to vote, simply because she does not follow the cantidates, she does not care what is going on in politics. Should she vote what I tell her to? naaa I respect her for not just voting what people tell her too. Or just to vote to say it is her right and I VOTED.

It is NOT you right to vote, it is your RIGHT to make an EDUCATED vote or it is for not.
the problem with a class like that is that then you end up with drones of the teacher. People who vote that way/think that way because they were taught to.

Thats a bad idea.

I liked it better when no one voted.....
