5. Way to go.
Thanks for answering the call to vote Bu$h out of Residence. I am very much an admirer of Kucinich, so I have to think you have excellent judgement. You at least do not dwell in the box that the media bombards with their thought herding. I think you are a patriot in the country's time of need.

2. Happy Birthday!
Hope it's a good one! :)

I'll be turning 18 in a couple months, but I miss my primary by only 20 days. :cry:

Ah well, at least I won't miss the GE. :D

4. Rock on!
It so good to see an active young person. try to get you friends involved in this process. Only 18% of voters under 25 voted last general. If only you realized there are enough of you to equal and surpass the numbers of the mythical "swing voter"!

Dennis is lucky to have you. He's a good man. You have chosen wisely, youthful idealist.

You can run for office as a Democratic Precint Chair.

You have until Jan 2nd to do so.

It's the ultimate of grassroots!

24. Music to my ears!
Good for you! Dean might be the present, but Kucinich is definitely our future. I am almost out of the "young voter" demographic (I'm 24), but I still feel like people my age and younger are for the most part ignored. That's fine, I have many voting days ahead of me, and I intend to cast my votes for a future where leaders like Kucinich are the norm, and not the (lone) exception.

28. Let's talk Election 2020.
Edited on Fri Dec-26-03 11:34 PM by ih8thegop
If you want to replace President Clark, it's never too early to get started.

You'll want to win at least 18,182 votes in your run for the Legislature next year, because the GOP candidate will for sure get 18,181.

In 2010, you will want to run for Congress in 2010, also making sure you get 18,181 votes or more. (President Dean's full backing could also help.

I smell a run for House Speaker around 2016 or 2018, and I suggest you take a high profile in passing President Clark's agenda, so you can get his endorsement over Vice President Kucinich.
