politics

preface: i am not politically informed. i don't consider myself to be someone you could sit down and talk "america" with (or any other country for that matter).  however, this seems to be an important election year. not because we'll either have the first black president or first female VP, but because we're in the largest economic crisis since the great depression. 

hello. 

i guess it hasn't really hit home to me, the crisis that is. i personally am not in an economic crisis nor are my family members or anyone i know firsthand. not saying we're rich here, but no one was affected by the recent housing saga. that said, it's a huge deal. the market is going crazy ( and no, i don't really know what that means, so don't ask. but i know it's true.) 

yada yada, i don't know much, but i know people that do. so here i am going to post things they've said, taught me, shown me, etc. that i feel are important. i feel it is our responsibility to vote, and to be informed as a voter. so i hope to inform at least a few inasmuch as i have been informed - please take a moment to look at these links, watch these videos. and my apologies if they are biased or offend your personal political stance.
