Don’t Vote Election 2008, who cares about making history? --Thoughts by JS

Every time that an election and or voting event comes into play, people become children with small vicious dogs nipping at the bottom of people’s pants. The candidates become flies that won’t stop asking for your vote and then complaining that something that the other did wasn’t fair. They are Rick Mercer’s Election Kids , relating cookies and ponies to today’s politics. They end up playing games with one another seeing who can incriminate the other first with the best and most devastating ideas to knock the other out of the race. The preface before you actually end up voting in the cubicles is one where you’re promised better healthcare and that global warming will be taken care of so that the world in 20 years will still exist. McCain and Obama constantly play tic-tac-toe with one another. The election is already big enough because the if Obama gets elected into presidency then he will the first black man to be president. It would be a very large accomplishment with our past history. I mean it is not like racism, women’s rights, healthcare, the war in Iraq, gay rights, patriotism/americanness, etc. is important. Why vote?
