I think its awesome that you are so ahead of everyone else your age in your interest in politics. Im 19 and barely just starting to become interested and aware of things. I wish I would have started earlier like you.. You seem to know what you want and thats good.<br /><br />Jorge PS201Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834429593174903152.post-51339098369716645192011-12-08T09:27:00.884-08:002011-12-08T09:27:00.884-08:00Great post!

It was cool to learn a little bit about your background and see what great views you have! I know that I wasn't nearly as opinionated at sixteen or seventeen. Keep writing and expressing your ideas!

Even though my views lean to the left I try to stay neutral and unbiased in my information which it seems that you do also. I would have liked for you to provide evidence to Newt Gingrich's views similar to the Bachmann video.

But when it comes down to it, the only way you can have real socialism is by revolution. If that were to take over, we'd have a lot of chaos in this country. I believe it's way too late for that, but something really close to socialism needs to be done. I am definitely going to get into the Origin of the Family. Good post! keep doing what your doing. :)<br /><br />-Simson PS201Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834429593174903152.post-15238303012765246342011-12-06T21:28:55.583-08:002011-12-06T21:28:55.583-08:00Syd,

I wonder if the leaders, and citizens of the European Union would agree with your opinion on socialism given their current economic woes. Marx and Engels both made a compelling case for a utopian society, but historically their model has been met with little success. I'll stick with John Locke, and Charles Montesquieu. Thanks Again.

We used to have a neighbor who, and I kid you not, used to say she liked and trusted Fox News as a source because it was 'fair and balanced.' My mom and I asked her how she formed this opinion, and she said it was just her personal one. It became sort of a running joke.<br /><br />I guess in that sense I'm lucky. My parents and my political alignments tend to link up nicely. It has to be very frustrating to deal with someone who takes Rush as something more than a joke (you don't want me to get into the debates I've had with my aunt's mom and dad over why his tirades against global climate change are flawed).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834429593174903152.post-7462921833934133592011-12-05T21:12:51.025-08:002011-12-05T21:12:51.025-08:00You have a firm foundation for your beliefs, and w...You have a firm foundation for your beliefs, and while I would say that we have vastly different opinions on politics I applaud your willingness to learn the issues and have a very clear idea of what it is you believe. You are correct that most people, on the left and right are mostly clueless when it comes to the issues and it is the responsibility of the younger generation to take responsibility to ensure that the policies and people they vote for are not just based on the failed venue of information that is our news.

I do not being people dont get what your saying, but why your saying it. As a youth I have also been heavily involved with helping youth. I have not necessarily expressed the importance of voting (as they are not near the age yet), but instead the importance of getting involved in their community.<br /><br />I believe that if you show them how volunteering helps out other people and the great impact they make on other peoples life, they build a sense of power. The power and ability to change and move others forwards. It allows them to grow as individuals and become leaders to those around them. The gift of paying it forward. <br /><br />Then, maybe, when they are old enough to vote they can start actively giving back once again. Joining campaign groups, informing their peers, voting, and a different variety of other things. <br /><br />I have a project in mind that I have not been able to accomplish. Maybe we can sit together and discuss I can work with you to get my project going and involve your group, Salem Youth for Change to make this happen?<br /><br />-Ivan PS 201<br /><br />Ivan.J503@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834429593174903152.post-78458074625204830152011-12-04T19:38:49.408-08:002011-12-04T19:38:49.408-08:00This is my third attempt at posting.

Seriously, feel free to mention me by name if you want to. I don't mind. <br /><br />Anyhoo, I have NEVER quoted Rush Limbaugh in my blog. I think he's a big fat loudmouth. We may have many of the same views, given that we're both conservative, but I'm not a fan. Not at all.<br /><br />I would rather you liken me to Newt Gingrich, or Ann Coulter, or someone like that. But please, not Rush Limbaugh.<br /><br />BTW - I'm still waiting for your response to my last email in our political debate. It's your turn.<br /><br />I love you Squid. You're great, awesome, wonderful. You really are. Just don't misquote me to your millions of 18 readers. :)<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Uncle RickRick Debnamhttp://www.rickdebnam.comnoreply@blogger.com
