" 'Politics is the art of controlling your environment.' That is one of the 
key things I learned in these years, and I learned it the hard way. Anybody 
who thinks that 'it doesn't matter who's President' has never been Drafted 
and sent off to fight and die in a vicious, stupid War on the other side of 
the World -- or been beaten and gassed by Police for trespassing on public 
property -- or been hounded by the IRS for purely political reasons -- or 
locked up in the Cook County Jail with a broken nose and no phone access and 
twelve perverts wanting to stomp your ass in the shower. That is when it 
matters who is President or Governor or Police Chief. That is when you will 
wish you had voted." - Hunter S. Thompson
