Question by xenon: Is an endorsment similar to being friends with a jock or cheerleader in a high school election?
I don’t quiet understand why I should vote for someone simply because they are associated with someone I admire

Is it the friend of a friend thing?

Doesn’t that reduce an election to a popularity contest?

Now why you would equate being in high school with the seriousness of electing our President of the United States is a bit odd. I think young people should vote, however I would be willing to make an exception to the rule when it comes to your vote.
