More pages in the little book I have been working in:This says "Where are we going if we don't know where we've been?" "If we don't know our own history as a people how can we move forward?"

Did anyone catch the PBS special on Pete Seeger last night? It was excellent and one not to be missed. You can see a lot of his clips on youtube, one of my faves is this one...Poignant and still speaks loudly about what's going on in the world today.

Cracks me up that people always get upset or "shy" away from talking about what some call politics. I tend to call it "life", "real life" especially when it's something that effects all of us-here, there and all over the world. I know I'm going to get a lot of shit for this-I have in the past and don't expect it to be any different in 2008. I've never voted for a democrat. I won't vote republican. For me, there's no difference between the two. I know what all of the candidates stand for. Their voting records speak for themselves. I wrote this man's name on the ballot in the past and if I have to write it in again in the future, I will. I wasn't going to vote this year. I'm sick of it being the same shit with a different name year after year. I agreed 100% with this article on voting from last year. If I'm going to vote, then I want to give my vote to a candidate who I feel speaks for me. I'm not voting for someone just because the Press tells me I only have a choice between Brand X and Brand Z. I do have a choice, just as you do. I've made my decision and I'm going to stand by it and stand by him just as I have in the past. Mr. Nader, you have my vote.
