I can't agree more.
For some, get out the vote means handing a sandwitch to a hungry "outdoorsman" only for exhange of his registration and paticular vote, or the same deal to drug users.
Many people that I work with know little about the candidates, only that they have been told "Anybody but Bush".
Many reference a movie that was directed and produced by an individual who in the past 10 years or so has spent his time in London, Germany and other foreign countries telling the people how America is evil & imperialist among other things.
It amazes me how he can produce a political movie and pass it all of as fact and the people believe it. But I suppose most of the people who believe it were likely not going to vote Bush anyway.
I became "politcally aware" back in the Regan days.
I didn't vote for him because they were telling me that Regan only desired to start a nuclear war with the Soviet Union. A vote for him would mean certain and complete destruction. There was no good intention in him.
They also told me that a vote for Regan meant senior citizens would be tossed out on the street, loose all of their social security and a draft would come because of his nuclear war.
Well I remember being extremely concerned when Regan won and expected the worst.
I learned well from my mistake and now I hold Regan as one of the greatest.
It's still the same rhetoric election after election....they say seniors will loose everything they have, social security will be stopped, the desire to starve children, the draft etc.
Now they have the far left producing full length Hollywood political statements.
This is from the same party that promotes massive vote fraud and threatens and intimidates the media from displaying an opposite view.
I've asked many "anybody but Bush" people at work and nobody could name the secretary of state, etc. Out of about 20 people only 2 could name the vice president.
I can imagine these are the target people who will be bussed to the poles tomorrow.
Ok,....sorry..... I'll get off my soap box now.
