Remember, Remember, the 2nd of November

If you aren't going to vote, I don't wanna hear you complain about the government. Actually I never want to hear you complain but that's beside the point. Obama said it himself to close his session with Jon Stewart, "Can I make a plug here, just to vote,"

Notice: he did not say vote all democrat (although obviously he wants that) but my point being, it was almost a plea. The president is begging his own country just to get out and vote. Let's think about this, a lot of countries are fighting for their right to vote. Our country is helping countries fight for their right to vote. And yet, come election day, thousands upon thousands of Americans sit on their asses and don't vote. Why? I don't understand, it makes no sense to me.

"My hope in this election is that, people who vote on the basis of what they think is right and have integrity and aren't just thinking of the next election but are thinking of the next generation, they are rewarded" President Barrack Obama

It's like when I'm doing my daily creepin' on Facebook and I come to somebody who has "none" or "hate them" as their political views.

Bull. Shit.

Everybody has political views! They may not think about them, they may not recognize them as such, but if they have an opinion on anything they have a political view. The line, "I hate politics?" Well so do I, I can't stand them, but you know what? Politics are there whether you like them or not. And not only that, they govern your life.


That's the whole idea get it? You can't escape it, it is literally impossible. No place in the world is devoid of politics or some (albeit perhaps makeshift or ludicrous) form of government. So why should you not be involved with them simply because you hate them? That's all the more reason to get involved. If everyone who disliked something in our government spoke up, it could only fuel the effort to fix it.

Not voting as a form of protesting something is retarded. Plain and simple. Nobody hears that you don't vote, all you're doing is making sure that you aren't represented in your own government. I don't care who you vote for, (I mean, I have people I wish you would vote for) but just the fact that you're voting is important. If a lot of people truly believe that something is right for our country and I don't think so... oh well, if that many people support it, it must have some benefits to the country.

If you didn't catch my point yet, here it is in a single sentence. On November 2nd, go vote in the midterm elections for who you believe will best benefit your state and country. Non-voting complainers will be bitch-slapped.
