I'm registered and I've voted every election since I turned 18 (just missed the Gore v. Bush by 2 months), and I re-register every time I move.
Re: drinking age: I think if you can buy and operate cars and shotguns and adult prison sentences and voting booths at the age of 18, you can operate a fucking beer.

The cutoff has to be somewhere. Maybe if voter turnout was better with younger voters they would consider dropping it to 17 (age where you are treated as an adult in the court system).

the more Ithink of it I'm not too disappointed because living in Obama's homestate of Illinois he already won our 21 electoral votes!!

QFT!
OT: I registered to vote not too long ago on campus, havent got my voter card through the mail yet.
Voting is compulsory in my country. I am 26 and I have never enrolled to vote. I do not want bureaucrats checking up on me. I never confirmed my address or signed to be on electoral roll.
At the end of the day you get another low life politician making idiotic decisions that are not in the best interests of the people.
Either way in a two or three party democracy you lose a scum bag politician gets in power and they give themselves 10 percent annual salary increases, whereas the average worker gets no pay rise per year.
As a prospective political scientist, I implore everyone to vote. If people stop voting, then I have nothing to study.
Ironically I still need to register to vote, but that is because I moved counties. I will register in the next few days.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
