That was a fabulous speech. I'm alone in my living room and yet I was bobbing my head and smacking the sofa and practically shouting "YES!" NOW IS THE TIME!
Someone to vote FOR.
Exactly! For me, as a vote-casting adult, it's gonna be the FIRST time! \o/
And the last time I felt that way was almost 8 years ago, sorry but I still think Bill Clinton was one kick ass president.
Honestly, either one of them and I would have been happy, never have two candidates been more deserving, seriously, I don't think I can even remember a time since that has happened.
Well—I'm 24. But I've been politically active from a very young age—I made campaign posters for Dukakis! And my family ran the Clinton campaign headquarters for our county in '92, so yeah—that was probably the last time for me, too.
I am very, very excited about voting in November! And I'm excited that the rest of the seems to feel the same!
VERY COOL!!! I remember talking to my friend saying how when I was 16 I was talking to others about Amnesty International and such and how I had talked about the destruction of the rainforests by 18 and wrote one kick ass term paper for a college freshman class about all the ramifications of unemployement in Ireland..she was like, when I was 18, I was lounging by the pool..she got really into Pearl Jam and thought she had wasted those years..how I figure, it's not when you show up, it's that you do.
I love it when people get excited about anything, they release happiness!!
(and I do hope the young comment didn't bother you, I shouldn't talk, when I was 29 I was carded to buy lottery tickets, but I'm only in my 30's and still look young..which, I've come to realize can be a good thing *smile*)

And no, I don't mind—I mean, it's true! Better that I look my age than be 24 and look 80. ;-)
