Default Rock the Vote

Registered members do not see ads. Register or logon for a better view.
Rock the Vote, made famous by MTV, claims to be a non-profit and non-partisan organization who's mission is to simply register as many voters as they can. Go through their website and let's see if any of you can figure out the truth. www.rockthevote.com
Groups that claim to be non-partisan, need to tell the truth about their claim. Rock the Vote is not interested in how many voters they register as much as they are interested in what party they register them for. Anyone agree? Disagree? Intelligently prove your point.

Rock The Vote is after the youth vote. The youth vote typically slants liberal. No big mystery. They support conservative youth voters too as long as they just vote.

I have a hard time believing that, when they try to imply that the draft is coming unless they vote. The people running the show at Rock the Vote understand that younger voters are typically more uninformed, and vote based on what is fashionable. Being liberal is considered more fashionable, no question. Fashion is set by entertainers and musicians (and the news media these days), which overwhelmingly lean liberal. I mean, are we supposed to believe that P. Diddy's "Vote or Die" campaign is out there supporting conservatives as much as liberals? Not anymore then Rock the Vote is. Their articles related to the draft defend the Democrats that proposed the bill, thus implying that it would be a Republican administration that will allow them to be drafted, which is dead wrong. I went to a concert in August, and the girl sitting at the Rock the Vote table outside the venue was wearing a Kerry/Edwards pin on her shirt. It is incontestable that Rock the Vote is an in-the-closet liberal organization, disguised to mislead younger voters for the sole purpose of electing liberals.

It will be most funny when the youth voting %age doesn't change. Will further prove that kids don't care.

Jesse was governor. Now Arnold. I think Carl Weathers should be the next Predator star to jump into state politics. Since Giuliani isn't in the game anymore, we'll have to find a different Italian Stallion for Apollo Creed to go up against.

attitudes like yours is what i dont get. if you dont vote, you cant complain about anything and if you seriously think that by choosing to ignore everything because "everyone lies" and "we're the ignorant masses".....then you're living in a bubble.
