Not calling you out or busting on you; I am genuinely interested because you are a member of the largest and, potentially, most powerful 'voting' block there is.

Why don't you vote?

What would motivate you to vote?

Potentially but it will never be. Never has been and never will be.

I can only think of one exception off-hand, Jesse Ventura.

I don't really have an interest and I can't stand them all.

What would get your attention and participation?

You realize if people like you formed your own party, the non voters of America, you'd win every election?

Now, how to get non voters to vote?

I do think it is a shame you don't vote but, again, my motive is not to shame you or anyone else or bust your chops. I see this as an 'us' problem.

Hell, y'all may be the sane ones and the rest of us are simply obsessive lemmings that we care so much, simply lead around by our masters with little strings and shiny words and phrases.
