Election 08 from a non-Voters eye

10 02 2008

Well, i’m only 17, and i won’t be 18 until after the election, but for some reason, i’m really getting into the Election this year.  I am a republican, so naturally i don’t like obama or Hillary, and everyone accuses me of being racist or sexist cuz i don’t like them, and its pretty annoying.  But on the Republican side, its down to 2 (well actually 3, but we won’t worry about Ron Paul) anyway, I’m going for Mike Huckabee in this whole thing.  I had the chance this Friday (the day before the Kansas Caucuses) to see Mike Huckabee at the Ramada Hotel in Topeka, about 500 people attended the event, in a small room lol, but i really liked what he had to say, a lot of times, you like a person from there TV ads, then hear them speak and it changes ur mind, but not in this case, i really liked what he said, and it made me like him even more.  It made me happy this afternoon when i saw on Yahoo! it said that Huckabee took Kansas.  Now mathematically speaking, he doesn’t stand a chance of the nomination, but weird things have happened before, and who knows, he may pop out and end up beating McCain.  I don’t necisarily like McCain, he is a Veteran, and he is for the war in Iraq, which i don’t agree with the war in Iraq, i support our troops, but not the cause for which they are fighting.  But there are talks right now that are saying that Huckabee may be McCain’s running mate and be the Vice President, but in all respects, i don’t think McCain is gonna be president. I think Americans are gonna vote for a change of president, in the form of an African-American or a Woman, and again, not sexist/racist, but i don’t think thats gonna work, but again, i have no impact on this election at all, but ya, its fun to attempt to participate lol. Later.
