2004 Ballots
Hi. I can't vote. I want to vote, but I can't because, in the 11 years I've lived in this country, I still don't have a Green Card, let alone the Citizenship required for voting.
Yet, I care. I want to do something. I want a voice in what happens in this country, my new home.
So, for those of you privileged to have been born here by chance or design and who don't plan to vote, shame on you. You should vote. If you do nothing else to better your environment, at least put in your voice for your elected officials.
Even those of you who aren't in swing states should put in your voice. Why? Sure, whatever party has a lock on your state may already have it in the bag, but the more overwhelming the victory, the more of a statement it makes to people in other states, whether you vote for the Other Party or one of the alternate parties.
If you weren't going to vote and you're at all interested in helping out someone who wants to vote, but can't, please vote for me.
Update: Choices clipped.

Your typekey's not working, Ian.
And yay, new posts from Ian!! I'm a bit behind the times on blogging.
It looks like the transition finally "took" or so it appears. Yay!
