So this will be my first time voting (my state's primaries are in May) and I was wondering are there any other first time voters here on GC? I am trying to educate myself on each of the candidates and what their stances are on issues I believe are important to me. I don't want to be one of those teens who votes for Candidate A because they're someone other than Bush, or for Candidate B because they're a member of this party and so are my parents. My friends tell me I'm taking this all too seriously (I've been researching each candidate
on the side) and that as long as Bush is out of office the US will be a better place. That's extremely naive and I refuse to put just anyone in office because now I have a little bit of influence on who will make major decisions for the next 4 years of my life. To make a long story short, I'm excited about expressing my right to put someone in an office besides the ones in my school.
