You are too young to worry about politics

Ahem. Some of us just happen to like it.

I agree. I haven't seen writing of this caliber from a ninth-grader in 30 years! Amazing, and a most pleasant surprise.

Yeah, but why would you waste your time with politics in high school when you have so much more to learn about yourself besides the evils of politics. What I am basically trying to say is that yes politics are important but don't get your hopes up about our government. Even though I consider myself a Christian-Conservative I don't always follow the "party-line" because the party isn't always right.

Think for yourself and don't get caught up in the names of being liberal and/or conservative like some of us old fogies and expand your mind. You might be losing some good friends because you disagree with them politically. Remember some of the old guys here are set in their ways and will never change, you are old and should find out for yourself.
