Tuesday's column titled "Libertarian candidate has no chance" demonstrates why our election system is messed up and why less than half of voters bother to show up at the polls.
Contrary to a letter written to the editor Tuesday, I can safely assume that there is life beyond Lil Wayne and Kanye West. We all love the infamous song "Lollipop," but if anybody appreciates good music they can also jam to "Jungle Love" and "The Joker" without having to be 50 years old.

To suggest that Urban Meyer has no character and is a bad person for letting his inexperienced kicker attempt a field goal late in a game is simply ridiculous.
As a supporter of presidential candidate Bob Barr, I would like to respond to Kyle Robisch's commentary by saying thank you.

Saturday night's football game was everything we thought it could be. Although we have our worries about the correlation between media hype and the Gators' actual potential, the Editorial Board was thoroughly satisfied with the team's victory over Miami.
Saturday night, as Tim Tebow was trying to organize offensive drives, the stadium was blaring loud when it should have been quiet.
Want to stop ticket scalping?
I entered UF in 1998 with 26 Advanced Placement and 11 dual enrollment credits. Everybody said how great that was and how quickly I could get through school. I, like many of you, did not need study skills to get A's in high school.
I don't own a car, so I keep a colorful, expensively designed Regional Transit System bus schedule by my bedside.
