I am not sure if this is true for any of you, but I have a friend that is very democratic and just hates Bush. The thing that bothers me is that up until Fahrenheit 9 11 came to the theaters, this person was never actively involved in politcs. Now, he is so pro Kerry that if anyone brings up anything about the war or the election in general he will butcher the subject until you agree with his view point. My problem isn't that he supports Kerry rather that he bases his opinions solely on this movie. He takes what Michael Moore says as pure fact and fails to see the bias. He doesn't research the other side of the poltical argument. I don't care what side he supports so long as he is accurately informed of both sides. Anyone else have an opinion on this?
I totally agree with you about people having to research both sides of the argument. I mean, it doesnt matter to me who you decide to vote for in the end as long as you research all the sides and make your decision according to what you have found out. I noticed that a lot of people don't take the time to do any research before they vote and this bugs me...in my opinion you should at least make an effort to find out precise information about the candidate you want to vote for..or at least make sure you've read or heard a speech or two made by that candidate!!!!!
