Here's my essay. It's a bit wordy at 1093 words, but it was fun to write and I hope to get a good grade. :)

Oct. 8th, 2004 09:32 pmYou know what makes me angry? That if I vote (let's pretend I can for a minute) for Nader, it won't "mean anything."
Excuse me?
So that means, basically, "Your vote counts! But only if you vote for Bush or Kerry." Too damn bad. I'm not a Democrat. I'm not a Republican. And I don't settle. I pick who I want, even though it's not popular and my candidate has no chance of winning. I want a lot of things in a president, and looking at the candidates Nader has the ideas that match what I want the most closely.
So why doesn't it mean anything? But I know that it's true, it doesn't mean anything, and that's sad.
That's my political problem.
