ID Requirement Upheld

Today, Supreme Court stated that Indiana’s law for requiring ID to vote is upheld. This means that in Indiana, you have to have some ID to vote. I believe this should be everywhere because IDs are given to you if you have a drivers license or you can still go to the DMV and get a non-driving ID for a limited charge. If IDs are required then the people’s votes count more because there is no one cheating behind the scenes using dead people to vote.

A More Perfect Union

Sen. Barack Obama’s speech on race relations after America learned about his pastor. Amazingly done and could go down as one of the best speeches in the past years

Welcome

I just wanted to say hello and tell you a little about my self and what this blog is going to be about. I’m 17 years old, turning 18 in the next month, and I go to Bradley Tech High School in Milwaukee,WI. I am currently enrolled in AP United States Government and Politics. Because I am enrolled in such a course, I have been reading local and national news a lot more than an average would be. I am also eager to vote in my first election in November and it happens to be a presidential election where an incumbent is not running or there is not an “heir-apparent” to the seat. I will just post on my theories and how i will come to the decision on who I will vote for in November. I am not the normal person who just picks a person for looks or hopping on the bandwagon because he/she is popular. I am picking the candidate because I believe he/she will serve the country the best for the next four years. This is the most important and most powerful country in the world and I am not wasting my vote.
