Super delegates explained

With the Democratic Primary race being so tight the "super delegates" may be the deciding aspect in this election for the Democratic Party.

There have been a lot of questions about these things called Super Delegates. Super delegates are a group of delegates from certain states which when they go to the Democratic National Convention have not decided who to vote for...They are commited to neither candidate in the running.

This is different from the Republican National convention where the delegates go to the candidate hands down when the voting is done. Instead the Democrats would prefer to not know immediately. This year is turning out to be quite a race for the White house.

In conclusion the super delegates can decide who will be the candidate the party backs.This is because they hold 40% of the amount that is needed for the nomination. This is a bit unfair since when push comes to shove a candidate who is loosing in the public vote may win the nomination. This is all for now.

Pennsylvania Primary

I would like to congradulate Hillary Clinton on winning a very important Presidential primary beating Obama by almost ten percent...This was a big state for Hillary simply because she knew that she needed to win the primary in order to stay in the race.

The current delegate count Obama 1740
Clinton 1618

That does not take into account the super delegates which I will explain in the next blog

Age?

Since my last blog was about drunk driving I figrued I would like to tie it into this blog about age. Here you need to be a certain age to do anything...The thing is even with the age the United States Government says there is still flexability with that. For instance if you want to go to an R rated movie you are supposed to be the age of 17. However if you are with someone over the age of 17 then you are able to view the movie.

The next example is going to be about gambling...You need to be only 18 years old to play the lottery however if you want to go to the casino you need to be 21. I feel that gambling is gambling whether it be at a slot machine or a desk.

I think that every one should have the same age limit for things hands down...Either 18 to do everything(except drinking) or 21

Drunk Driving

Yesterday Sandra Bullock and her husband were in a head on collision with a drunk driver and I figured I would mention this whole issues of drunk driving again. Not just because I love celebrity gossip but because I have the feeling that drunk driving is too much of an issue. I mean every 39 minutes one person dies due to a drunk driving accident.

Another Issue I have with drunk driving is the fact that in those 39 minutes when there is a drunk driving accident it is very seldom the drunk driver him/her self. This is because when a person is NOT drunk the body tenses up when one is alerted to danger. This is more dangerous in a car. When a person is drunk they do not get tense and there fore the person that is drunk does not get injured as badly.

IN CONCLUSION

DO NOT DRIVE DRUNK...IT IS ILLEGAL...DRUNK DRIVING KILLS

One year already

It was one year ago today that someone at Virginia tech opened fire and killed more than thirty students...Today is a day of mourning and remembrance for the students who lost their lives. It was a horrible and tragic end to so many peoples lives. Let us not forget the family members of the people who died. Every day that goes on they must walk by their daughters and sons bedrooms and keep walking.
