let’s face it! If Mitt Romney wins, we will be in the hottest section of Hell. No jobs,no good education,no healthcare,more debt that China and Japan will declare war on us because we didn’t pay our bills,the unhealthy rich and wealthy people will be more richer than average John Q,the youth(that’s us) will be to blame for everything that goes wrong in this country.Republicans are making this country weak and stupid with their actions and their evil ways and words.The youth are the voice of America yet we sit our butts and expect things to get better. That’s not how it works. We need to help the President in every way because if we don’t ,the Republicans will make sure the youth and their votes are eliminated forever.We ‘re already escaping from the hell that we’re in,but with Romney,we will cease to exist. Think with your hearts. The prez has done more than you think but we’re not paying attention.Let The New and Youthful Rise and the old and faded die! If not Obama and/or not Romney, then we need someone younger and more brighter to lead this country to greatest.Someone with an independent view of the world and not one-sided because every Republicans is not good or bad nor is every Democrat is good or bad. We still can vote.Don’t stop voting .Keep going.It takes time. Learn to wait instead of blaming others.

Let’s stop the BS about Obama not doing stuff for college graduates and jobs since these companies are playing games with hiring, firing, and rehiring people along with holding $3T in their coffers where they are not paying for training nor courses for people to get the knowledge necessary to do these jobs. Next to these businesses, Congress and the newly elected officials from the 2010 Elections are to blame also since they have not put anything out there to create jobs and focused on going against women’s health and voters who would want to change the make up of the House and Senate back to what it was after the 2008 Elections.

24 year old here and proud Democrat. I, along with most of my fellow graduate students here in southern California, will be, again, voting for President and Commander in Chief Barack Obama. Please tell me why Romney is palatable to any of the youth vote, and if not Romney, the Republican party? They have consistently attacked/railed against every important issue to the youth vote from student loans, the occupy movement, to planned parenthood and womens rights. They also have consistently attacked illegal immigration in a divisive manner, neglecting the multitude of Latino voters that are American citizens. The evangelical right has been constantly pushing social issues such as creationism in schools, gay rights (also a civil issue), and drug related policies, to name a few, all of which many 18-35 year-olds feel passionately about. Lastly, the GOP has NOT done anything to fix the economy (JOBS JOBS JOBS???) and instead remained on their wayward obstructionist plan to foil anything President Obama/Democratic Congressman attempt. In short the GOP are not just conservative, they are regressive. The youth is PROGRESSIVE

I’m simply amazed at all the ignorance of the posters here versus what the polls have been saying for months. They have been dissected down into actual voting blocks….women, Latinos and the Youth…and the President leads big in all 3 large voting blocs. And…LOl…Gallup and Rasmussen come out ‘witjh their lies’ of a statistical tie just as soon as Romney is declared the ‘probable nominee’. And we arent supposed to notice the ‘disingenuousness’ (LIES) in that? LOL…LOL At least, I am talking about those of us who have actually paid attention.

All this country needs to do to save itself from a BHO 2nd term is:
1. Institute Photo ID immediately.
2. Give every voter a sixth grade literacy / civics exam as a qualification to vote and make 50% a passing score.
Do these two things and Romney takes all fifty states.

sshhhh. I think it will be better for all of us if he just keeps pandering to the 18 year olds and keeps acting like student loan interest rates are the most important issue. If team Obama could just keep this plan going for the next few months, then the rest of us can get back to fixing this devastating economy.

In 2008, voting on the issues and using basic human intellect went to the wayside when the #1 reason the Youth Vote gave for voting for Obama was that they wanted to “be a part of history.”

Well, they certainly got what they wanted – - because under President Obama this country has endured historically high UNEMPLOYMENT, historically high home FORECLOSURE rates, historically high GAS PRICES, historically high grocery prices …

He doesn’t need the youth vote this time because a George Soros owned company in Spain is going to be counting our votes in the upcoming election. No chance of fraud there.
