Millions of the poor voted for Bush, and not because they were
suckered, but because he accurately reflected their values (of
patriotism, religion, and social traditionalism).

Are you saying that if more people vote, someone else would be elected
and this sort of thing would not happen?
I see no reason to believe that. It would seem that basic statistics is

I know of no theory that postulates: If all the people who did not vote
I don't know who would be elected if everyone voted. I do believe that
our officials would be more truly accountable to the poor if the poor
voted, as happens in India. Inefficient officials were elected in
Mumbai and the city, particularly the poor, suffered for it. Most
likely those
I agree with marcus.
Also know this as it seems to me, historically and inevitably,
proper and thorough actions to avoid potential catastrophes are never
taken until it is too late. It's a human condition mostly rooted
by the fog money and politics creates. And if nothing is done to
avoid
The start of this thread was about what can videobloggers do to help
ourselves and others prevent this kind of disaster in future? So now
we're at what can videoblogging do to improve the human condition? I
threw my hat into the ring - I think that voting is important and that

And before more people use words not in my dictionary:
- Keep discussions civil. Go after the ball, not the man as they say in
soccer. Namecalling is not cool.
- Keep discussions on topic.
Right, my apologies. There are things that are reasonable, and things
that you feel. These often conflict. I'm still not back to rational

Over and out.

To my mind one of the biggest forces we as videobloggers can bring tobear on things like this is to help spread genuine information about

This is our bloggers' Dan Rather moment. The media
is going to do their little specials but it would

and one step beyond pointless rants.
