Well then don't VOTE!?

As the heated debate rages on as to what to do next. Many post I've read end with, "...or NOT vote!"
This is absurdly not an option. We are utilizing the single voter block tactic. If we don't we are not utilizing our vote to maximise efficiency.
If you don't vote you are wasting your vote aswell. As is voting against principle. The only REAL last option is to write-in None of the Above (NOTA) unless we can get NOTA on the ballot before November.
I can't begin to say what plan B will be by then. I have posted what I thought with only a few to embrace the ideas. I just know that NOTA is my planD and it should be that of the rEVOLution aswell.

Vote for Ron Paul candidates of which Bob Barr is not one.
You're right
If you believe in the system of voting, not voting is a complete waste!
But if you've been convinced of the absolute corruption and futility of voting, then not voting is the only sane thing you can do.
Different perspectives. I'm seriously considering not voting and entirely letting corruption take itself to it's final end. I have many more important things to do, such as getting ready for the next break, to worry about voting. Ron Paul is the only reason I would vote this year. I'm still torn between writing him in and "not Voting".
Don't NOT vote! Even if the
Don't NOT vote! Even if the system is totally corrupt and your vote does not count that is just more reason to write-in NOTA. The election is decided by the electorate not the popular vote and a NOTA write-in campaign won't change that. But I believe NOTA is the only way to skew the popular vote and reveal the hidiousness behind the system.
Voter consent is the last thing a legislator wants to submit to there respective governing bodies. NOTA can only get on ballots if the issue reaches critical mass. Which could very well be at the end of this year.
So don't NOT vote. Writing-in NOTA is a far better choice.

I must say that I have been intrigued with the idea of NOTA since I first learned about it through L. Niel Smith years ago.
Correct - not voting is supporting Hillary more than Ron Paul
A no-vote protest from a Ron Paul supporter will be indistinguishable from a no-vote protest from a Hillary supporter.
It's very important that we all vote for someone on the ballot in order to make sure no one interprets our non-votes for us being disgruntled Hillary supporters.
So who will that be?

Or, A non-vote for Hillary is a vote for Ron Paul!
It's just as absurdly obvious that a non-vote for anyone is not a vote for someone else. It may just well be a vote against corruption, or a vote for more corruption. Fear tactics like yours do not work to a person who does not respond out of fear: and I believe the majority of the Revolution does not respond to fear.
That may be correct but do
That may be correct but do you think the MSM would spin it that way??? No they will spin the fact that many Clinton supports do not/ will not support Obama and some are even considering McCanus because of his Liberal stance on global warming. The MSM will spin alot of the non-voter sentiment to be attributed to Clinton supporters staying home this year. Keep in mind that Dems need this type of spin to curry sympathy so they can keep lying to the general public. NOTA can take that away from them.

I don't know who it will be
I don't know who it will be but if there isn't a good protest vote choice that's living. We need to get privy to NOTA.
We should also be pushing NOTA on Clinton supporters who plan to not vote. I have no issue with MSM and the public at large mistaking Clinton protest votes for rEVOLution protest votes.
I know i talk alota NOTA but this is about voter consent and the right to with hold that consent.
If... RP and Jessie Ventura were not on the ballot in any capacity... We had the ability to withhold consent and NOTA won. The election would have to be re-done minus the candidates that America withheld consent from. We would be back in business without the Obamunists or McTrotskyites because America cannot withhold consent from you if you are not a candidate.
If we miraculously we got Ventura ballot access and Paul joined as his running mate. We are all confident it would be a winning ticket. But how do you know? You don't. You can only claim this if you have figured out how to split the Democrats vote.(*which I have, NOTA can split the democrat vote*) The only way this could fail is if JV/RP lost to NOTA. But really... I don't see that happening, just like I don't see Bama or McCanus beating NOTA. Rather, I see JV/RP as the only ticket that can beat NOTA.
