Hmmm I'm starting to think that maybe we should use more of the site. Maybe more people might get interested if they see there is more to this site than just rapping. That you don't have to be a grade A rap artist just to join the site. The site was created for anyone who likes rap, and to be able to share views and thoughts about that and a couple other things. Such as politics as you see here...
Well, moving on... The one thing I've kinda been thinking about lately when it comes to History is, why is it that people think that having Kerry as president was going to save our lifes or something. I mean, yeah, it might have been a bit better (or not... who's really to say), though my point is you couldn't really expect either one to make a huge difference. People don't understand that if we want democracy, we must use it to the upmost extent we can. We must take control and power in our government, and make sure the country is runned the way we want it to be. Now signing that ballet on voting day is important, but knowing why you did it and what you want changed in this country is even more important. What's sad is most of the people who voted this year in the election didn't truly know why they were voting. Except for the fact it was the "patriotic" thing to do, and this year more than ever it was displayed as if you don't vote... your a terrorist.
It's kinda funny how everything as of lately in today's political system is ran based off of scaring people tatics in america, making us believe these hoax's that they try to sneak past us. For example, to me Bush won the election because he was able to scare the people of america. Making people believe that if he wasn't elected the terrorist were gonna "get us". Though how about medical/health issues, living conditions, etc. which was kinda over shadow and hardly looked at during the debate between Kerry and Bush. Even my history teacher began to chuckle when I said this, because he said "It's ironic how a 16 year old kid can see that, but yet millions of adults couldn't"
Well, I'm about to go now.
Buh-Bye
