P.Diddy: the youf will decide this election
Larry King was very embracing of P.Diddy. I was surprised. He really seemed to like the idea.

Now Tucker is saying that young people are to uninformed to vote. Tucker says we should vote unless we are well informed.

1. Will we have to take a test before we vote?
I'm sure it was a slip of the tongue. He meant 'indoctrinated'.

2. OMG
is Tucker insinuating we need to bring back those tests they used to give blacks in the south before they would let them vote?

Weren't they literacy tests?

Damn, someone needs to squawk about this one!

3. How many fucking adults are informed on the issues?
Fuck Carl Tuckerson, I'm 17 years old and I would just LOVE to debate that asshole.

4. Tarl Cuckerson is a grade-A asshole.
I bet that preppie act was cool in the 80, but he's getting a little old for that image isn't he? What a jerk.

5. this is the 2004, passive-aggressive version
of literacy tests for Black Americans, but aimed at 18-24 year old Americans in an effort to supress their turnout to the polls - I guess 18-24 year olds are not the same Bush demographic in 2004 that they were in 2000.

7. Informed?
I've had a few people bring this up. I always ask once simple question. Who's the Lt. Governor of this state? Nobody ever knows. So much for informed votes.
