say goodbye to our rights =*(
we now have right wing congress, president and presumably supreme court. a sad, sad day indeed. this could be a lot worse than the reagon years. time to move to canada.
one of my friends, who defintely wouldnt be considered to be homecoming material asked a bunch of friends to vote for him. We did and he got to be royalty. After we found out the royalty we then voted again. we made up 'vote mike for homecoming' signs that the school pulled down. finally we piled in the gym and waited to see if mike won. he did. it was so great to see this dorky, pimply faced kid in a cape and crown that were too big for him. unlike this kid though he accepted, but accepting it is protest in itself.
that's what you get for shopping at an evil store like wal*mart, destroyer of union jobs and mom & pop stores everywhere.
Since when is not voting a form of protest?

Should You Vote?

it is extremely stupid to sit out and not vote as a form of protest. politians will look at it as a form of apathy and not protest. there is a reason why the elections have focused on medicare and social security. that reason is that the elderly vote in huge numbers. if young people don't vote, then there will be no focus on them and comments like the one bush made would not be said. the elderly in general dont understand technology, and hear what the media says about it. bush is playing on this while demonizing the internet. what does he care what young people think? he doesnt because he knows for the most part that they wont vote. that is why the best form of protest towards the two main parties is not abstaining from voting, but it is voting for 3rd party candidates. if young people vote for 3rd parties the two old parties will see that they are leaving out a huge section of their constituants. i come from mn, where jesse ventura was elected. he got young people to get out and vote. and vote they did. who would have ever thought that jesse ventura would be the governer of a state. please, please go and vote or be forever forgotten by the system. and if you dont please dont complain about who gets voted, because you have NO right to whatsoever until you let them know who you want in office.
