16. In 2012, I voted for Obama.

I didn't think Obama was on the side of Ordinary Americans (and still don't), and considered Jill Stein (Rocky Anderson was my first choice, but he wasn't on the ballot here.), but I decided to vote for Obama because it would make it just one vote harder to steal. (I expected Romney to "win", given the amount of money spent by Big Money donors. Anonymous claims to have subverted an attempt to steal the election. Maybe they really did.)

I might do the same thing this year.
