I was thinking, if a candidate of another party supported Bitcoin, would you change your normal vote to support that candidate or will you stay with your original choice or the party you usually vote for? How strongly do you feel about Bitcoin? Strong enough to switch votes? How much weight does this add to the final decision you have to make at the voting stations? Let's see, if you would switch and why.

I like the topic yes i will change my voting party if he don't support bitcoin or any technological advances and will vote to one who support. Its better to have a leader who thinks development of any country lies under being up to date on technological aspects as well as trying to be not dominated by other countries currency.

So " IF a candidate supports Bitcoin" carry enough weight for you to ignore other aspects of his or her views on things? Let's say this person supports the death sentence or they support abortion, and you are against that, would Bitcoin weigh enough for you to still make that same decision to switch vote, or to vote for that person? Heavy decisions to chose between... right?

Will definitely switch. if i have a lot of bitcoin i may even launch a campaign for this candidate to win. this is going to be an advantage for all of us users as it will help its price go up. But then again, politicians are politicians they'd do whatever it takes to get votes.

I won't vote president candidate only because he/she support bitcoin, i still have to look other aspect such as his/her views, what will he/she do after become president and many more. Better vote for best president for majority people and convince he/she to support bitcoin.
I think president will not support bitcoins as they want to control the money and bitcoin does not support centralize controlling

even if a president wanted to do it they'd keep their mouths shut. these people are kept afloat by corporate interests. these interests don't align with what bitcoin stands for. but even if they did support it, i'd want to see what else they were bringing to the table.

Well for me if that running president supports bitcoin, in my side I will vote for him because its a big opportunity that a president support bitcoin and cryptocurrency which is if he will win, bitcoin will implemented as one of payment method in that country even in phtsical stores and because of this bitcoin price will hike until it reach for how many US dollors much higher than before but there are also some bad effects for this, because as we already know bitcoin is the payment method in the black market so the government will oppose to him, and maybe he will not win because of this, but even my vote is for him.

It wouldn't sway my vote just because he/she supports or does not support bitcoin. It has positive benefits either way. Bitcoin support would more than likely translate into a swift spike in the price and therefor be a negative to anyone still wishing to purchase at a low price and willing to wait it out until this inevitably happens. Lack of support would be the exact opposite and give the folks who don't mind waiting time to increase their holdings and maximize profits.

Not really tbh.
What is the purpose?
I would only vote for someone that is a good leader for the nation. Things like taking action physically helping the people while fighting against enemies if there was a threat. Cred is the name of the game
Money alone isn't something that inspires me to vote.
I am not against Bitcoin, maybe it has a future...idk. It just seems funny to me...A president promoting Bitcoin...unless the Pres was going to permenantly shut down the government then it would make sense for him to do that...
I wouldn't be suprised if that happened

101% I will support the candidate who has policies which are in favor of bitcoin's growth. Unfortunately, this will not be possible in my country as here politicians are illiterate and very rarely do announce technical things in pre - election campaigns.

this depends on many many things. if the candidates have the same opinion, but one is supporting bitcoin and the other is not, then this is a nobrainer for bitcoin. the other extreme is jesus vs hitler and hitler suports bitcoin, jesus not. sorry bitcoin then. the rest is somewhere in between, but i would be more worried about the candidate keeping the promise afterwards.

When I first read your question I think right away I definitely choose to vote for the president who support bitcoin. But I think again and remember that the media said if Donald Trump become the president of the United State, bitcoin will get a huge advantage. But I don't wanna vote for him, even if it's good for bitcoin. I want Hilary Clinton to become the president and if I can I will vote for her.

I don't know why you would want to immediately swap to a president that supports Bitcoin, as that would likely only bring about taxation and likely wouldn't be a net-benefit for people overall. It would just be another way for the government to get easy money, under the guise of being a beneficiary. Also I don't know why you'd want Hillary if you know everything she's done, especially considering Trump has an immensely cleaner record.

Yes, I would vote too. But I don’t believe a candidate would promise it because it needs agreements with many organizations that are against.

That depends, cause a President should promise glory and prosperity to their country by promoting trade and other activities as well and not just Bitcoin. If the candidate supports Bitcoin but has other negatives, he/she would not be worthy of my vote. It all depends on the overall pro's and con's of their visions and strengths as well as weaknesses.

People are crazy nowadays... Voting for a president just because bitcoin? Politic have a lot of aspects you have to watch and learn, and that's why the world is a messy, people don't give a sh1t and put anyone in command.

I'm not a single issue voter, so it would seriously depend on who the candidate is, what else they stood for and how trustworthy, (relatively,) I viewed them to be. Especially given this and the last several elections, where anyone with a conscience should vote for who they think is the least destructive, shiniest of a selection of only turd candidates.

Bitcoin would be in a very bad shape if it required support by a president. If that was the case, Bitcoin would have become like fiat and it would be senseless to vote for it.
Of course a president that would promote Bitcoin use across the nation would be a plus. However, because Bitcoin does not depend on that support, it is equally important to take into consideration the candidate's opinions on other political matters as well. Assuming that a potential president that supports Bitcoin is likely on the libertarian side of the political spectrum there are high chances that he/she would be the preferred choice for me.
But I can only reinforce my statement that Bitcoin must remain fully functional as a decentralized currency without political support. That's the whole point of Bitcoin: Money independent of centralized control, because - as we can see these days again - power is abused sooner or later.
