Gary Johnson.
I refuse to cast my vote for either two "evils" ( or rather, bullies ) just because of popular opinion, or because they have more money.
There is a third option that everyone is either too ignorant to look up or just ignores. I'm personally too disgusted with Obama and his lies ( He runs ads in my state, Ohio, saying he "saved" the auto industry and thousands of jobs... with the auto factories being heavily concentrated in my area, all I see are abandoned buildings and struggling families. Along with the auto companies that shut down here, where hundreds of small shops and businesses that relied on those factories to thrive, so it wasn't just them. How much worse of a lie can you get? ) He disgusts me with how he conveniently says things and does things at JUST the right time to gain popularity; he has charisma, but that's all. Lets not forget the things you DON'T hear about. The unmanned drones killing innocents in the middle east, indiscriminate murdering, jailing of those who speak out against this government, etc. And I'm just being vague about that stuff. At least if Romney is elected, I believe the economy is more important that social issues right now. If I had to choose between marrying my boyfriend, or LIVING, I'd most likely choose living. ( Rape/women/LGBT/abortion issues can also be settled by the state. ) Since after all, no job means no money means you starve.
That doesn't mean that I like Romney at all. I don't. Which is why I'm going for the third option.
Frankly, I'm scared to death if either of the two "big bads" gets elected. With Romney, there's more discrimination. With Obama, I could live on the street. Who the hell knows? This country is fucked up beyond repair, unless there's a group somewhere who could overhaul our entire government and make it right. But that can't be done without violence. So the best way we can do it is to vote; which is shitty because 70% of this country doesn't take it seriously, and will just vote for whoever's more popular or looks better or whatever other petty reason.
I do not trust the people of this country to make a mature, serious decision. So we're stuck with whatever those Jersey Shore watching, Kim Kardashian loving, Britney Spears aspiring, illiterate idiots decide.

Sorry, I'm just in hate with it. I can't trust my own country which ultimately is screwing me over against my will. It's like my lifestyle is being gangraped by billions of strangers all the time.

Gary Johnson or Jill Stein would be my top choices. Look them up. Obama and Romney give me stomach ulcers.

EDIT: Also, please nobody tell me "you're just wasting your vote". I'm sorry if this offends you, but if you think that way, you're just contributing to the problem. Instead of telling someone it's a waste, you could turn to a person who doesn't know about these other candidates and MAYBE give them a chance to actually make this country better. Being that I'm in a swing state and a majority of my friends here are thinking of going this way, it's not off the table.
