...Yeah, my video games are sort of weird...here's the story. If you know what RE4 stands for, good! If not, it's Resident Evil 4 (Rated M for mature for bad language, violence, gore, and everything that makes a game fun)

If you know this game or played it, you know it's hard (chainsaw maniacs, crazy villagers with pitchforks, the Princess Peach effect...hard), it takes place in Europe, and the word "American" is used a lot. So the first play around, I didn't notice what the characters are saying, but slowly the second time...just a few lines from the villians things like "Do you really think a conservative mind can chart a new course for this world?" and "Terrorism...isn't that a popular word these days." and one interesting "Did you really think I'd trust an American?" O_o Yeah...

I went though again and than I found out what kept bothering me. The bad guys were acting liberal! That's cold! It's an old game, came out I think two or three years ago depending on the system. It's just one game, but conservative ideas are popping up a lot in pop culture. Has anyone else noticed anything else like this?

Hmm...after all that "don't cry when McCain wins stuff" it was Obama who was the winner and is going to become our next president. But what was that when McCain gave his last speech, his supporters booed every time Obama's name was mentioned. Republicans... they never want to get along with other races or cultures different than their own Christian culture. Oh well. I don't  care for now. I'm too happy!

After all that "the black people are going to riot when Obama loses." Well he didn't lose, he won and there were no arrests in Chicago that night. Last time I checked, barely any arrests across the nation. Plus it was kinda funny that the only southern state to vote for him, was our very own Florida. My family in D.C. (which Obama also won) was so happy we live in such an "open-minded, black supporting state." I didn't have the heart to tell her that it was the larger counties that won it for him. But probably what got the votes were the younger generation voting.

After all that struggling, campaigning, and fighting over the past couple of decades, Black Americans finally have time to celebrate this one glass ceiling shattering. 

The time for us to unite is now. So don't keep moping like that guy at the grocery store who tried to tell me to take off my Obama button that I forgot was even on my jacket, which I didn't remove.  Keep saying stupid things like "how can I raise my child under a black president?" ...My parents raised my brother and I under white presidents. Stop trying to separate us by race and religion (I shall name no names, you know who you are, even if I don't...which I kinda don't)  let's unite for the greater good and to honor our future President. Barack Obama! 

Hopefully you've read the constitution and the bill of rights, but if not, let's review the first amendment.

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

I was watching this add on TV last night, forgot who or what it was for, but it showed a man in a suit with some protestors and what did the anncoucer say?  That the guy was seen with "radicals." Hmm, so suddenly using our right to assemble and protest freely puts us in the same league as a bunch of bombers and communist spies? Yeah, that's a little wrong, don't you think?  I'm not sure if this was a Republican or Democratic add, more than likely Republican, because Republicans have always had problems allowing people to have and use their constitutional rights.

But isn't calling peaceful protestors radicals a bit hypocritical. To some protestors, the government doesn't have the peope interests at heart and many feel Bush sold out his own country. In their eyes, he's the radical.  I even looked up the word radical in the dictionary and this was the tenth result:

a person who advocates fundamental political, economic, and social reforms by direct and often uncompromising methods.

...Sound even a tiny bit familiar? I'll you with little bit from the Declaration of Independance.

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Take the hint people! Demand a better congress and demand a better president! Cool huh? this is how i used to do secret messages in my emails.

When I was in elementary school in D.C., the students had to pick an electon song. (it was always a song we only voted for because our teacher said it was good) I don't know what you do in FL. 

So how do you prepare do you prepare your kids and grandkids old enough to vote for the electon? Get them excited that there will be a new president?

Do you even do anything to get them and yourself excited?

...Probably not, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

For the record, if I had to pick a song for this year's electon,  I'd choose Future in My Hands by Aimee B. Great song, a foreign song, but good.  If you want to hear it, I'll try to post the song on the music message board, but I can only find it on YouTube with violent footage...so far.

Let's get excited for a new (and hopefully better) President.

Just read it and answer my question. Do you think this is funny or not? I have this on one of my notebooks for school and so far, only one person thought it wasn't funny and that was a teacher too. Harsh. So is it funny, true, or just something that the creator of the Simpson's did to kill time? He has a few books filled with comics like these and they're all hilarious in my opinion.

Have you ever noticed that it seems that if McCain gets the presidency, he said he'll pull the troops out of Iraq by like 2015...which is like after his first term is over.
Bush also said the troops would by out by the time his term is over.

Has anyone else noticed that it's like their passing the war over president to president, kinda like tossing around an old vase, like a "here you go" or "Your problem now" kinda thing.

If McCain does win (key word is IF) what will happened to the US and please don't say it will change for the better. I'm smarter than that.

What the heck is going on?! Is this going to end up like Korea because technically the war was really never declared over. There is still a large base near the border of North Korea, right? So when will this war truly be over and will the Republicans at least clean up the mess they made before a Democrat has to do it for them?

I'm not dropping this, so expect to be annoyed by this more than once.

I know I'm liberal, I'm a hardcore democrat! but if I hear one more Clinton speech (from either Bill or Hillary) I'm going to either throw-up or defect to the blue side! Is anyone else tired of hearing Clinton's voice? It's like one of those old records going on and on and on and on...please make it stop!  I'm not that tired of Obama because he doesn't nag.

We're ready for a woman president, just not Hillary, right?

According to a friend who is eighteen, she isn't going to vote because she doesn't see the point. I pretty much left her alone, but the more and more of my old friends I talked to, I realized...they're going to vote.

I registered to vote before I even turned eighteen, I always thought that this was my chance to have my opinion heard. So here's my question.

Even though they have the right to vote, why do you think young people ( ages 18 to let's say 25) don't choose to? Why won't they even bother registering?
