I don't think the message should be Just vote, but rather get educated on the issues and cast an informed vote.

[speek]

You're completely right.

I probably should have explicitly said that, but I meant people should get educated as well.

Too bad all that education gets reduced to essentially one bit..

Everyone should learn as much about the issues as they can, though when it comes down to it you only have to be more informed than the average voter to improve the pool. Which isn't too high a bar.
