I’m so pissed I didn’t register to vote. My friend Jackson got me the forms to register but it got to be late on the deadline day and it completely slipped my mind because I was so busy. However, I could have swore I registered to vote when I got my Tennessee license. Maybe I should go to the voting place and check it out to see if I’m on the list. Then, maybe I will be able to vote. I really want to. It’s a thick race here in Tennessee and I really want to do all I can to see the democrats back in power.

Let me clarify. I don’t just want to see the democrats back in power just because I’m a democrat because I’m not. I have a lot of conservative values. I just believe these aren’t the republicans that I learned about. These republicans want to take away rights with constitutional amendment, they are corrupt with power, for the corporate interest only (it seems), and generally destorying the middle class by policy. There are some republicans that aren’t like this but from what I’ve seen the current administration and friends of the administration are like what I describe and I can’t stand to see them in power.

I’m in an interracial relationship which would have been illegal not to long ago (yes, it was illegal at one point in time) until we realized this was none of the government’s business. Who people fall in love with and marry is none of the legal system’s business and it never should be. Every time I think we have come so far as a society it seems I find out we barely moved at all.
