Maybe Kerry’s not the perfect choice, maybe he’s even a serious suckass choice. Doesn’t really matter to me, as long as I don’t have to live near a coutry led by Dubya.
Impressive election-time efforts from bright people:
Marc Perkel spends a couple grand setting up a direct line to offer Fahrenheit 911 for download off his site. You can just go there and get it if you haven’t seen it, especially if you are an American voter. (My personal issues with Michael Moore aside, this is an important film for everyone to see, if only to balance the unbelievable bias of most American media institutions)
Also, Errol Morris. documentarian of the century and creator of the Apple Switch ad campaign, has created a series of “switch” themed ads for toppling the Bush regime (former republicans saying they won’t vote for Shrub) , worth checking out.
Bummer: My American teacher, and apparently a large group of other ex-pats from Pensylvania, won’t be voting this year because whoever’s in charge dropped the ball on absentee ballots. Democracy shows itself to be circumstantial once again.
