Ralph Nader has a good point on this score
Too bad we don't have a none-of-the-above option in the presidential race. These predictions: it would increase voter turnout; it would outpoll Ralph Nader; the Big Two would never go for a challenge on their pseudo-constitutional monopoly.
Nader proposed it on NPR a few weeks ago.
If we had that option, I do believe it would be the only viable moral choice for Catholics. As it is, I'm considering walking into the voting booth on November 2nd, and voting for every race except the presidential one. I'm waiting to hear a bishop come out and say that anyone who votes for either Bush or Kerry is excommunicated. That won't likely happen.
