we had, like, one, and maybe only one candidate that was actually honest and truthful.
i won't vote for either one of these people. voting 'against' liar A by electing liar B is still voting for a liar.
there was a man i respected in the race, and maybe i'll still vote for him even though he's not technically running anymore, and really can't possibly win. that wouldn't be throwing my vote away, IMHO -
- throwing my vote away would be voting for someone i don't actually support, just because i support someone else even less. that kind of thinking is "lying" with your vote, and i reject it.

) because of this; one of my list of reasons.The spirit led me to this passage to let me know we're not in control of anything.
Acts 17
24: The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man,
25: nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all men life and breath and everything.
26: And he made from one every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their habitation,
27: that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after him and find him. Yet he is not far from each one of us,
28: for ..In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your poets have said, ..For we are indeed his offspring.'
29: Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Deity is like gold, or silver, or stone, a representation by the art and imagination of man.
30: The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent,
31: because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all men by raising him from the dead."
We have nothing to worry about.

Does this go for people who tell the odd lie or for habitual liars? How do you tell if a person has deliberately told a lie or has been misinformed about something? Should we leave Politics alone all together? Judging by the endless threads about Trump and Clinton I reckon at least some of us should.
If you're being led by the spirit of God, then you are ONE with him and all others who are being led by the spirit. It's Satan who confuses the minds of men and causes them to argue about the things in the world. Don't you know that all flesh and the world are Satan's? Why support those things by voting for those liars ( the flesh of man ).
Is it not promised by God that he will use the Earth to kill all flesh?
Ecclesiastes 3
17: I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for he has appointed a time for every matter, and for every work.
18: I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts.
19: For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity.
20: All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.
Genesis 6
12: And God saw the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth.
13: And God said to Noah, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh; for the earth is filled with violence through them; behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
17: For behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall die.
Revelation 19
17: Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to all the birds that fly in midheaven, "Come, gather for the great supper of God,
18: to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great."
19: And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who sits upon the horse and against his army.
20: And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had worked the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur.
21: And the rest were slain by the sword of him who sits upon the horse, the sword that issues from his mouth; and all the birds were gorged with their flesh.
Galations 5:
19: Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,
20: idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit,
21: envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Quote "The truth spirit won't allow me to vote for any liars."
Thats your point of view, you're welcome to it. In the same spirit I can't sit back and not vote when my forefathers fought and died for my right to vote and brave men and women still do today. I can't sit back and not vote when babies are being aborted every minute of every day and one candidate supports abortion at any point in a pregnancy. I can't sit back and not vote when that candidate says religious beliefs need to change to support abortion.I can't sit back and not vote when that same candidate sat and did nothing while men lost their lives in Benghazi,then stood in front of the caskets and lied about the cause of their deaths. She lied to the nation and the families of the dead. I can't sit back and not vote when said candidate won't say "Islamic terrorists" and looks the other way when women are buried to their necks and stoned,beheaded and abused under Sharia law all because these countries donate to her foundation. I cannot sit back and not vote while ISIS is on the march and beheading Christians,raping women and children and more horrible things I dare not say here. I cannot sit back and not vote when this candidate lied about emails,deleted thousands of them and risked the security of the country. I can't sit back and not vote when said candidate's husband made a mockery of the oval office and bedded women from Arkansas to the WH. with no guilt and ALSO lied to the nation swearing under oath he "did not have sex" with that woman. They are cut from the same cloth. I can't sit back and not vote when said candidate lies about sniper fire then turns her back on the men in Benghazi.
So you can and should do what your conscience tells you to do. But I will do whatever I can to sound the alarm and keep that evil pair out of office. And yes,I will vote "just to keep her out of office". And if people had any common sense they'd join me. Rant over.
Just a reminder...
