Incredible as time flies by. My baby just left to go to vote - First time.
He reminded me that he was born when Bush I was president and that he had never known anybody by Bush and Clinton as presidents in his life time.

It is difficult for me to believe he is old enough to vote. Just crazy.

1. Congrats to him and you, Mass!
Amazing statistic when you realize that his generation has only seen a Bush or a Clinton in the White House. They've also seen an illegitimate impeachment, and illegal war, torture, and they've seen a Congress let the president who was EXACTLY what the founders warned us about get away with murder--literally!

2. That's so great, Mass.
When I was born, Reagan was just entering office, and Bush I was his VP. That's what led me to want a serious change this time around.

3. That's awesome.
My first election was 2004 - I'm still so proud that the very first oval I filled in on my card was for John Kerry.

Thanks for raising another good liberal citizen!
