I believe I remember you making this argument before, but I can't remember your points. If you feel like it, please make the argument again: if voting is a waste of time, why would convincing people to vote a certain way not also be a waste of time?

[/ QUOTE ]

amount of time voting : chances of one vote altering the outcome
V
amount of time convincing X number of people to vote a certain way : chances of the sum total of people you convince changing an election (also the number of people they convince and so on)

These are different ratios.
