I know the electoral college......blah blah blah......but > still ???? no, you're completely right. in fact, this is one of the most intelligent emails that i've read ever. nader is doing pretty well at this point, but not good enough so that he'd get more votes than gore; thus indirectely giving bush the votes to win. i love nader, i'm even trying to get an internship in washington dc to work on the campaign. he's the underdog, though, and people aren't gonna give him more votes than they do to bush or gore because they aren't familiar with him as a 'left wing' or a 'right wing' candidate. people - especially americans - are shallow when it comes to politics. i've heard people say that they like bush because he's a real 'go-getter' like 'part of the football team!' well WOW, i guess that makes him the best choice for the oval office, right? doesn't stop a lot of americans. oh well. the point is that we need to avoid letting bush into office, and sadly the only way we can do that is by giving someone who isn't completely insane the vote. besides, i don't think gore is *that bad.* he may be boring (which he's not, i've never thought that) but at least he's not a fucking COKE HEAD. now on to the second part of the e-mail: my new radio show. ok, well today was the first radio show i did and uhmm if any of you were listening, i'd like to know what you thought. be brutal, please. my friend (co-host/best friend) and i couldn't listen to it so we weren't even sure if we were broadcasting ;) any suggestions or anything would be great. thanks and please vote for gore :/ amy
