It's Time for a Change America.

I know it's been a while since you got a gem from the vault...but I'm reopening the doors so the treasures can flow.

Are there any voters out there? This presidential election is both exciting and scary. It's exciting to see two democratic candidates that feel very passionately about the issues they are supporting, but it's also scary to know that the nation could possibly vote another Republican into office. With so many problems that need to be addressed in the United States, there is a lot of talk about continued spending in the war on terror. These hundreds of billions of dollars and prescious lives that are at risk fighting a "threat" could possibly add relief to the millions of underpriveledged Americans who would use these funds to maintain a family environment in our own country.

It's time for a change, and I urge everyone reading to vote....voice your opinion.

There are many topics being discussed that directly affect the well-being of most lower to middle class Americans. Listen to what our presidential candidates intend to do to better our country and the welfare of everyone in our country. It is your job to educate yourself through any media available, to fight for what you believe in.

This country is at an economic low, and the only way to rise out of this deficit is to promote change. Given the opportunity, George W. Bush increased military spending, cut federal money to college students and proposed tax cuts for the upper class. What does this mean for you? Well if you're a middle class American, and you want to go to school, there is little to no federal grant money available, which means you would need to take out student loans to pay for school, or ask you rich Uncle Scrooge. This degree will hopefully land you in a career in your field where you will earn a moderate wage with atleast health benefits. After you graduate, you must begin to repay the $30,000 you borrowed to go to school, with additional interest. This will end up costing you significantly more than you borrowed, and will also raise a red flag on your credit report. This can prevent you from taking out home loans, auto loans, and many other sources of money that you may need to survive.

With the election coming up, the democratic candidates are fighting hard to level the playing field for advancing in society. Under the presidency of Barack Obama, every American will have the opportunity to get $4,000 a year towards tuition to a college or university, every American will have health care, and we will begin to see an end to the war against terror.

It's our country, as a people, and it's time we took it back.

Thanks for reading, comments are welcomed. Don't forget to vote!

Do you remember...

Good Afternoon Blogosphere....
As I brush the dust off of my broken-in Mr. Rogers sweater, take off my Air Force's and do a Michael Jackson spin and kick, I smile to myself listening to "Goodtimes" by Juelz Santana on his second album "From me to you". You can't help but to think about the good times you remember from your childhood, and even the not-so-good times that don't seem all that bad now. The song is now stuck in my head.

"I look around like where the good times at? I'm just tryin to bring the good times back..."

"Do you remember..."

Cross Colours jean outfits
Bucket Hats
Malcolm X hats and necklaces
Doc Martin boots
Starter Hats and Coats
High top fades
Pig tails
Fanny packs
Lunchboxes
Saturday Morning Cartoons
Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt combo with the Gun
Big Trouble in Little China
Michael Jordan playing
Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Million Dollar Man, Coco B. Ware, Jake the Snake and all the original wrestlers who made wrestling famous...
pagers...

Memories like those help me appreciate the '80's and '90's. Youth today have no idea about the "good times". Times are changing. They don't have the simple stuff like I did, they get the advanced technology germ. For instance...

reality shows
cell-phones (as early as 9 yrs old)
xbox 360
Fake wrestling
Violence
George Bush
Underage pregnancy
"No Snitching"
Trap stars
Diamonds....and zirconiums
pimps and hoes
34" rims

but.....atleast they get to Crank That!

I wouldn't trade in my childhood for any amount of money.


Any amount of money under 100 Bill-yen doll-ers....
