Would I Vote?

I would definitely vote in this election if I was going to be 18. I mean why not? People make a way bigger deal about it than it really is. You drive for MAYBE five minutes to your nearest booth and you spend like 10 minutes there filling out nothing but your opinion. Can I be anymore clear? And plus if I am putting my say in something, even if it is just one little vote, that's amazing. Yes. Go voting.

What is an American?

America is special in the way that it is a country completely made up of people and cultures from around the world. This makes the term difficult to define but, I consider anybody who lives here and believes in the principles of the country American. You don't even have to agree with some policies put forth by the government or anything like that because that's what being an American is all about--being able to express your own thoughts and opinions.

PSA's

I chose this PSA as an example of something not to do. First of all, it was too long for how boring it was. It was this slow moving slideshow of pictures that looked like a fourth grader did it. I did not in any way have an interest to keep watching. And due to the fact that it was just pictures (boring ones at that) it did not get the point across very well at all. I actually feel less likely to vote now that I have watched this.
