[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	A) The voters who just vote for whoever their party puts on the ballot B) The voters who pick the candidates for their party If you just vote for whoever your party puts on the ballot regardless of whether or not you think they are good, you have chosen to be type A. On the other hand, if you only vote for your parties candidate if you think they are good, then your party has to cater to you and what you think is best in order to earn your vote. This makes you type B. Which type of voter do you want to be? -----signature----- If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSgiXGELjbc "Everyone has a chance to become rich." - Groucho48 "Most of the human wealth on earth exists between the ears of live human beings." - theredkay1

	I'd rather be neither. I don't vote for a political party, I vote for the candidate. Last election I voted for candidates from two parties. If I see someone from a third or fourth that I like, I will vote for them. Why do you (partisan voters) hate America? -----signature----- "Goddammit, Swearengen, I don't trust you as far as I could th'ow you, but I enjoy the way you lie."
