I was going to post this on the news thread but then I thought this was worth it's own thread. I'm still not sure if opening this thread is a good decision. If you think it isn't, you can close it, Pat.

I just saw this add at Yahoo.com. I hope I can post it here. I'll try anyway.

This means a lot to me because I'm one of those people who think democracy means we're all responsable for chosing our leaders. It means we have the right to express our opinions about how our country should be ruled.
I think it is important to vote. It is important to express our opinion.
I'm glad Christina is involved with the campaign to register voters. Young people, specially, often don't care about politics or elections. I'm glad Christina is being a good influence on those young fans.

What do you think?
Do you think this add will influence young people to register to vote?
Also, do you think Christina should openly support a specific candidate?

Anabela, your right, I agree that this topic should have its own thread. thanks for starting it.

I also think it's great that Christina is out there influencing people to vote, especially the young crowd. But I'm not too sure it would be a wise move to have Christina say who she's voting for. Everyone should vote for who they feel will do a better job and not to vote for somebody cause Christina is. Know what I mean?

So is everybody a registed voter here?

[Andrea D]

I don't think I am. Should I be? So lost.

[Jordan23]

You should if your 18 and over.

I'd thought to post these here.


Voting Campaign

Thank you for posting those pictures. I don't remember seeing them before.

Pat: I think there's a risk Christina would influence people to vote for the candidate she supports. But I think her choice for the next president says a lot about herself and her ideas about how her country should be ruled.
Or maybe this is just me being nosy. But I'd like to know who is she voting for.
Anyway, I don't think that many people would allow themselves to vote for someone just because Christina is supporting that candidate. The decision to vote for someone is a serious one and it should be based on something stronger than "Christina's doing it".

AndreaD: if you're 18 years old, you should register yourself so you can vote.

Anabela, ITA with your post, and I wouldn't mind knowing either who she's voting for too.

But like you said, its a risk letting her choice be made public. Then again thinking about, the age rank is 18 and up. So I don't think young people would be that easily influenced.

[Anabela]

I guess it's none of our business. She only reveals who she'll vote for if she wants to. But I'm still curious, though.

Yea same here.
