Super Duper Ultiduper Tuesday
by admin | Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

What can I say that hasn’t already been said by just about everyone in corporate and independent media?

If you have a candidate to vote for in the primary, go vote!

If you’re like me and the choices don’t reflect what you believe in, then the best thing you can do is either spread the word about a candidate you do want to vote for or get out there and join a movement. You see, the idea of voting for someone and then sitting back at home doesn’t sit well with me. People are heading to the voting booth to give up their power to change things. They’re placing their faith on an individual who may or may not fulfill his/her promises. In the case that they don’t, which happens more often then you’d like to think, you need to make your voice heard. Attend a rally. Join a grassroots organization. Get involved in local politics to find a more immediate satisfaction or better chance for change.

It’s Super Tuesday because every presidential election year a large number of states hold their primaries and caucuses on this date. Today is the day the American people help determine who will or will not get their party’s nomination.

I’m currently supporting the presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney of the Green Party. She’s a former Democratic congresswoman that left the party because she was tired of the corporate alliance it was building, like their counterparts across the aisle.
