Announcement From The American People

punisher, just because this is the largets voter turn out since the 60s doesnt mean that it was landslide.

say we have 100 voting constituents. 49 vote for kerry, 51 for bush. now, during this election, there were more voters. say, 50 more. that means 24 voted for kerry, 26 voted for bush, since the turnout is still 49/51. he may have gotten more people to vote for him (the additional 26), but an additional almost half of the new voters DIDNT vote for him.

i helped with that. i was part of a large movement at my school to help increase the voter turn out.

also, half of america voted for Bush. but ALL of america gets him.

and, no, its not the end of the world, its just a time where many people will be forced to suffer.

i try to stay optimistic. i really do. but when there are documents reporting US Intellligence investigating targets for bombing in Iran, it makes it hard to think \"oh, well, it wont be so bad this time around.\"
