My oldest sibling has never voted. That's a failure to take the responsibility of citizenship seriously. I have no respect for that.

It would be better if those on DU who spend a great amount of time and energy arguing about one candidate versus another (in the primaries) would invest some of that time and energy in registering voters. Because, in the final analysis, that is the #1 problem. It's not, for example, that 20% of the population votes republican. It's that so many more do not vote at all.
