Your candidates sound like they live in a parallel universe or something. How can one say that no one died because they didn't have access to healthcare? How about sick homeless people? Or maybe those don't really count, they don't vote or what?
Then again, I believe that's the case with almost every country. When I watched the last pre-election debate in my country, I felt everyone was either too dumb to be alive or aiming at a totally irrelevant target. When they were asked what personality they most admire, one of them mentioned a singer in his late 20s, who believes himself the ultimate authority for teenagers and who's mostly a pseudo-intellectual pedophile.

How can someone be so ignorant?

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania apologizes for Rick Santorum.

Entry #1.

I like how they're selling ad space on that Santorum website now. Don't know if it's different for you guys but it's trying to sell me participation in some pointless political poll, a timeshare buyer, and a master's degree from Lamar U.

So proud of my Keeniac friends. This is from earlier today.

More Santorum goodness:

He suggests to a New Hampshire audience that an imprisoned father is preferable to a same-sex parent.

Seriously though, what is his aversion to sexuality? For someone who dislikes homosexuals, he keeps talking about them a lot.

The audience, half students and half local residents, reacted with snorts and applause.

Made me picture every person there derisively snorting while clapping at the same time. Which still isn't as ridiculous as him.

this man could be our president and lead one of the most powerful countries in the world.

hrmmm...

You guys... I can vote this year.

And that glorious boot wizard will be elected for something.

Wait, you just turned 18?

Vermin Supreme in '12.

No but I hadn't in 2008. Or whenever that whole presidential choosing thing last happened.

5 November 2008. I know that because first date.

You sound like you know what you're talking about. I'll go with that.

And...

Christ, I'm old.

I turned 18 in 2008 & didn't get to vote because of absentee ballot troubles. Soo this is my first year too and I'm a bit overwhelmed.

Behind the scenes of this post: For the past few weeks every time I try to type "because" my stupid fingers put the u before the a. It's staring to get really annoying.

Dude, I was just chilling with Vermin at Occupy NH earlier today.

I miss 18 I think, 21 is a bit overrated.Not at all as wonderful as I expected.

I turned 18 in 2008 and already voted in 3 elections: Parliament, European Parliament (2008) and President (2009).

When you stop missing 18, you will know you have become officially old and boring, though you won't really realise it at the time. When you start missing it again, it will be because you found out old and boring is fraught with turmoil the likes of which 18 never told of.

Myself, I am just trying to stave off the day I realise 30 was young and simple.

People love to complain in general, so the age you're at will hardly ever be good enough.

What sort of absentee ballot troubles? And what happened to your 2010 election?

21 has been amazing for me.

I turned 18 in 2008, in time for the election, and I was excited, because how cool would it be to be there just in time to say you voted for the very first black president? Very cool. Unfortunately, I didn't agree with his platform at all. I couldn't bring myself to betray my principles for the gimmick of telling my grandkids how I voted for the first black president at 18.

My first pestilential election I missed voting in, and I was so pissed. All I had been doing for about three years before that was ranting that I wasn't allowed to vote.

Okay I'll stop complaining about age. This whole adult thing is odd. It seems I have a lot backwards.

I feel like I would love to sit and listen to your political/worldly views.

I moved from Connecticut to Ohio literally right before I turned 18 & I had talked to my town officials/hall about it before I left but with all the moving and crazy life changes getting in contact with the necessary people from back in my hometown was a game of telephone tag that was never resolved. So ultimately I never even got it sent out to me. My fault I suppose.

And I honestly didn't pay attention enough to feel like I would make informed voting decisions for 2010. I also was having issues with my 'residency' in Connecticut & Ohio because of living situations & insurance and a bunch of paperwork nonsense. So when I turned 21 this past September I became an official Ohio resident because I needed a new 'adult' driver's license.

Now I'm an adult in Ohio. Oy vey. So I've never voted, and am excited for my first time, but I feel like I won't know what to do at all - with the machines or how ever they do it now.

Also I like 21 quite a bit because people take me a bit more seriously, but I always thought it would 'feel' different, as happens with every age I turn older I guess.

Vermin Supreme is a true artist.

I fucking loved every second of that speech. And his voice. Very presidential. Or radio-al.
