I live in Jacksonville, FL. I go to a predominately black school on the south side of town. I've noticed today, being election day that students are more politically active than ever. Now, statistics show that African Americans usually vote Democratic. Not that it's set in stone. BUT, I want to know if the support for Barack Obama is because the majority of my school is black and simply voting for him because he's black OR because he is the democratic candidate. Personally, I'd vote McCain, but I'm only 17 this year. I personally don't like Palin or Obama but I'd rather a republican in office. This isn't a matter of who's going to win. It's a matter of WHY. Why are all the polls of the younger generation pointing to "CHANGE"? Why is our generation so against tradition? It's not Bush's fault we're in this mess. It's our own fault. Why blame someone for our faults? Why can't we fix it
ourselves?
