However . . . . only 10% of the youth voted Tuesday, when 54% of them voted for Kerry. Talk about idiots. Fucking kids.
They won't vote in '08 either.
Think about it. Who had the right to vote first? White women or black men?
When you figure that out, you will understand that you will have a black male president before you have a female president. THe Democrats are the only ones that are going to nominate a black man or a white woman. The only person in the wings that I see is Obama, but he won't be ready until 2012.
Then the Dems will screw up and put Hillary as he running mate, and they will lose. He will try again in 2016, but with a male runnimg mate, and maybe win.

Thanks!! Wish that I were that young again. I'm 55. I have been active in politics, have been to political events in both major parties (not just rallies), have done political web sites (my candidates won) and have consulted on city wide races.
Hillary was a year ahead of me at the same high school. Doesn?t mean anything, just name dropping.
All that doesn't mean I don't have a clue I guess. I am idealistic and hope I remain that way.
No ill intended, but times are changing. Perhaps faster than you think? I have been to recent township meetings that would support your point of view for sure, but that was in a rural area. You could still see the struggle though between ideologies.
