VOTE. DON'T



So election day is coming up. For those of you who are politically illiterate ( like myself), election day is November 4, 2008. Which is tomorrow. This really is a great time to be alive (or so I've been told.) First black president!?(granted, he's only half, but some people still can't seem to acknowledge the fact that he's still pretty much as white as he is black.) A female vice-president??( or as many would say VPILF, ( Vice president I'd like to...) which I think is a misnomer because she isn't even a vice president yet! or might never will be! So she's more of a GILF(governor I'd like to..)

Obama's getting my vote. I really wasn't fond of him at first and I initially was rooting for Hilary Clinton to take the Democratic presidential nominee. I guess it was all the celebrity endorsements Obama was getting. It became annoying. Also, because a lot of ignorant people just want to vote for him purely because he's black ( he's only half damn it!). I actually heard someone say "I'm voting for Obama 'cuz he's not white." wow.

But anyway, the point of this blog is basically what the title says. VOTE! DON'T. I'm simply echoing what my U.S. History professor told my class during one of his lectures. What he said really stuck to me. Too many stupid people are voting. People are deciding who they want as president based solely on their appearance, their commercials, and other pointless shit. Do you really want someone with no political knowledge a part of the process of selecting the next man(or woman) to run the United States of America? I'm not saying only smart people should vote, but I have to agree with what my professor had to say, to some extent of course.

I definitely don't know much about politics. I hate the subject, bleh!! I don't fall into a Democratic or Republican party either. I am a motha fkiing INDEPENDENT. I wrote that shit down on my registration form. Well, minus the "motha fkiing".

YES on Prop 2! I loove farm animals!

plus katherine mcphee is awfully hot.



Also, anyone who votes YES on Prop 8 is a douchebag.

AUDIO:

My favorite male singer-song writer, Sufjan Stevens, has announced many years ago about working on a "Fifty States project" In which he would compose an album about each and every state in the U.S. So far he's done two, and he's got 48 left to go. Yeah...lots of people are saying he abandoned that project, I think so too. So this particular song is from his Illinois album and is about the great city of Chicago, well actually moreso on his adventures there and underlying feelings and bittersweet memories of the place. It has a VERY Christian undertone! It references GOD! But this song iss gollldd! plus there's like 50 million versions of it. Sufjan Stevens- Chicago



PEACE.
