about youth and war

If young voters are voting simply on the war then they are wasting their votes. Military decisions should not be determined by politics and for the most part, won't. Clinton admits it, Obama lies about it, and Paul is wearing a tin foil hat. If people were being drafted, then there would be more reason for the war to be relevant. However, I think people should be more concerned about jobs and education and taxes. The comments about soldiers above is not correct. The military troops we have now are the oldest soldiers the US military has EVER had. 55% are 26 or older. I think this is why young people are having a larger impact in this election.

Democracy in action?

In a way it doesn't matter who made the videos. If they strike a chord with viewers, they'll get more views, and will get passed along more. I do agree that the pros distort the basic premise of this argument with better production values. That could lead to more people watching the Crush on Obama video (though the young woman's wardrobe probably has more to do with that). But, in essence, if people enjoy seeing McCain look like an idiot, the video will do well. And that might just be the democratic principle in action--no matter who posted the video or why.
