Don't partake in those either if you don't vote, really why bother being a part of American society, just to have the security and the riches it enjoys, but none of the responsiblity? I ask you.

I think that if you look at my other posts you'll see that I take my role as an american citizen seriously.

Giving my imprimatur to either Bush or Kerry would have been a lie on my part.

I pay my taxes, I've served in the military, and now I'm in school to become a teacher, researcher and writer.

I'm doing my part, never fear.
