When the time comes to vote for potential presidential candidates, will you vote differently depending on a candidate's stance on the NSA? Or does the NSA not matter to you?
[spoiler]I'd consider voting across party lines if I think a candidate will scale back the NSA[/spoiler]

9 回复Yes.. I will NOT vote Republican, Democratic or Liberal. Any other party such as Libertarians and Independents are for the win!

>Implying your vote matters in the US The Electoral College decides who goes into office, its just that usually the people align with College so it isn't as noticeable. But they can put anybody into office and say "-blam!- you" to the people.

Not a single insider or outsider is going to do anything with their budget or reign them in. The NSA has a function, they are keeping me safe in my bed at night, ultimately you have two choices if you are an American accept it and move on or move to a different country, your jobs are easily filled! President Obama, did not expand the powers of the security apparatus Bush did, he just never changed it and thank goodness he didn't I like being safe at home.

> Implying NSA surveillance is just a U.S. issue. In all likelihood, no. I don't see or particularly hope the surveillance will come to an end. However, it's possible the party I plan on voting for anyway would scale it back - not that I see them getting into government.

I would like to, but I am skeptical that either candidate from the two major parties will rein in the NSA. And there are other problems that take precedence for me, like fiscal policy and social issues. It does seem like someone who wants to limit the NSA's power would also promote the policies I like though.

1 回复Considering both major parties support the NSA and the fact that 3rd parties will never have enough influence to change a damn thing it's made me more apathetic than ever.
