[quote name='mykevermin']You bitch about that, yet you're clearly unaware of Obama's platform and policy suggestions such that you can't identify a mere speech meant to motivate rather than inform?
And yet you wonder why people make music videos instead of speaking on their platform?
I'd venture to guess, and this may be a long shot here, that it's because of folks like you who want every politician's plan given to you with minimal effort and discomfort...like a nurse gives an enema.
Why don't you take the next logical step from "the media and celebrities aren't giving me the information we need" and go find out what he stands for for your
in' self? Google ain't broken, and this ain't Scientology. His platform isn't a secret.
Go to his website and read up if you want it so bad. I recommend you do, since I like informed voters, but this passive "they aren't telling us where they stand" crybaby bullshit is so lazy when the information you demand is five mouseclicks away.[/quote] First off, I'd like to say that I was wrong in various places; each of which you pointed out. I was referring to an audience that mindlessly consumes propaganda and media potrayals and won't even think to take the time to make thos 5 mouse clicks. You know, the audience that you made a point to scoop me into . Or moreso, the audience I didn't try hard enough to scoop myself out of.
I am admittedly uninformed about the stances of the candidates, but the way you wrote with such urgency shows that you weren't aware that I'm not of legal age to vote. Either way, I suppose if I'm going to crusade against unawareness, I probably should be aware myself. I didn't even pay attention as to whether the speech was motivational or informal. In hindsight, most of that statement was a tangent, but what has come of me saying that made me right instead of wrong.
I don't want this to cheapen your great response at all, but could you go a little easy on me next time? Try putting me in a higher place instead of putting me in my place. I'm very humble and open to when I am wrong, you don't have to scold me.
Scratch that, maybe it's better off that you do. Putting your 16 year old in time out isn't as effective as taking away his TV, computer, and etc.
