How can I disagree with the best answer when I see that it is biased politically?

1vote is given and it is considered the best answer when it definitely shows that it was against the Democratic party. And how much time do I have to cast a vote before it is voted the best answer by Answers.

    OK, the answer is simple and let me explain. When I read an answer that has been picked as the best answer and I see that it was biased politically this is what I do and you can do it to. If or when this happens do this. Stop, think about it for a second and say to yourself,

    "I disagree with this answer".

    To me, this is the best, and possibly the simplest, way you can disagree with the best answer when you see that it was biased politically.

    You choose the answer. That way, you are the dictator, and your word is law. But, out of curiosity, why does a bias against the democrat party make an answer subpar? Politics was never meant to be a neutral topic, and when you say that a policy is right or wrong, instead of arbitrarily discussing its pros and cons without giving a conclusion...well, that is just the basis for a crappy answer.

    If the asker chooses his own BA, you don't get a say in the matter. I choose answers to mine based on viewpoint all the time...which is exactly what 99% of people here do too...if they're honest enough to fess up to the practice. I will occasionally choose one which disagrees with me, but it has to be EXTREMELY well thought out and well written.

    best answer is chosen by the asker..only the community decides if the asker has not chose a best answer within a certain amount of time. your vote is thumbs up or thumbs down. I have been given best answer by the community when I have only thumbs down votes. just because somebody has more thumbs up does not mean they win.

    Why sweat it - this entire section is about political bias. I think you'll find relatively few people on here actually asking a question because they don't know. People ask loaded questions, and give BA to someone who agrees with them, it happens on both sides. If you really feel as if you must do something, give a thumbs down then get on with your life.

    There is no requirement that answers be unbiased, be politically neutral. Depending on the question, an answer favoring one side or the other - or neither one - may be the appropriate answer.

    You can`t! All you can do is give it a thumbs down if you haven`t already done so after best answer is given.

    I guess you haven't been on here too long. Almost everything in this section is biased, uniformed, thoughtless, ignorant, offensive, with some axe to grind.

    Just move on.

    Do like everyone else does. Turn it into a leading question and then give best answer to whoever agrees with you.
