I just came across to find some interesting when i was surfing around. There is this contest called "Rock the Vote" sponsor by Univeral along with famous artists like Nelly, Mase, Toby Keith, etc. They are encourage people to register and vote. I actually registered this time cause there is prices for registering. It only takes 3 mins and u might get a chance to win prizes like PS2, freedownload, Autographed Guitar, Cds, etc. I thought i would share with you guys cause the contest ends tomorrow Oct 1st. U never know when is luck coming but i dont mind giving a try. u should too. www.gotdownloads.com/rtv/

I have a problem with this. It's called buying votes. They go to places typically voting Democrat ideals (the young, the poor), and offer things for registering to vote. They can't do it anymore asking them to vote because it is outlawed. But asking them to register is still legal. Tell me P.Diddy is Republican.
And you should be registered to vote anyway, not because there are prizes involved.

Which is funny, cause I don't see his picture on the website.
I don't support Republicans doing it either. If they are involved. Typically they aren't, but they are. I am happy that they aren't (from what I can see) supporting one candidate over another, but they don't have to. Voting demographics are a powerful tool. If you take 100 Latinos to the polls, they will vote predominantly Republican. If you take 100 poor, typical Dem.
I wouldn't support Ross Perot buying votes either.

Voting from what I hear is a good thing. Toby Keith is actually a Democrat.

So, you're calling 50% of the population stupid. Nice. Pretty "moderate" of you. Nimrod.
I like how you imply that all conservatives are stupid, but say nothing to the bending of the rules by this blatant attempt for Democrats to draw votes.

The only 3 boards I post on are all run by Bush-supporters. So it drives me insane.
