Serious Voting Video
I’ve never been that political. It’s either because I’m too tired of the mudslinging, too ignorant of the major political platforms, too disconnected from either candidate because I do not like either, or simply too busy.
This year, though, has been different. People extremely close to me have been the most vocal, the most passionate, and the most educated that they have ever been, and it’s forced me to dig a little deeper, do some research, take a stance, and pray to God that our country is not as retarded ignorant stupid blind dumb uneducated uncaring as me.
I guess I’m just being honest with myself… that I need to do this. Maybe it’s because I have a child now and I really care about the next 4 years. Maybe I’ve grown up a bit, matured a little more.
Who knows. But whatever your choice, go vote. Check this cool video after the break (strong language by famous people is used, so just FYI).
Vote!
I caught that on TechCrunch also. I think it is a terrific and provocative video. I certainly do not share the political opinions of most (any?) of the actors in the video, but I have always believed that I would rather motivate someone to vote than stay at home, even if I know they will vote differently than me.
I cherish my right to vote, especially in this political climate. It became clear to me last night that I helped put 2 senators in Washington that did a terrible disservice. I warned them several times by phone and web form that if they did what they ended up doing, I was going to make certain I gave their vote to whomever is running against them.
That is precisely what I am planning to do at this time.
