    Why Vote??? Make your own video statement!



    Rock the Vote’s brand new event on AOL UnCut Video has just gone live and we’re very excited about it. Check it out at http://uncutvideo.aol.com/events/Rock-the-Vote.

    This year, rather than showing you why different celebrities are going to vote, we want you to tell us why you’re voting. We’re asking the question, “Why vote?” with the hope that you’ll tell the world what makes you want to Rock the Vote. Simply put, we want to hear your statement.

    For this campaign, we’ve chosen to host an event on AOL’s UnCut Video, a user-generated-video website that has great tech specs. With UnCut Video you can upload your statement directly to our group from any of a number of recording devices—camcorder, webcam, digital camera, cell phone, etc.—making it incredibly easy to record your statement and share it with the world.

    What motivates you to vote? The war in Iraq? Student debt? Global warming? Those “I voted” stickers? Regardless of your reason, let’s take this chance to tell the world why we’re voting. Keep in mind that we’re all voters, not directors, there’s no need to make a music video. Just push record, make your statement, and upload it to our event.

    My colleagues at Rock the Vote and some of our friends have already posted some of our statements. We can’t wait to hear from you.

    Rock the Vote
    Bio: Rock the Vote was founded in 1990 to organize artists and fight against censorship of musicians. Since then we've evolved to focus on empowering young people to get involved in the political process. We use pop culture, peer-to-peer organizing, and the latest technology to raise visibility of politics and demystify the process of registering to vote.

      another left wing setup to have illegals and dead people register for the dems, for those reading this look up the facts most left wing get out and vote org. have been proven to get dead,felons and illegals to register. So, how about getting elected on issues and not supressing the vote of your opponent.

      this is good blog with a decent cause. people are thoiugh get educated on the issues then vote. in my view that all the more reason why the republicans all full of it. as for trickery didn’t we get tricked into a rebpublican president? republican tv ads can be far more scandolous once you really review the issues.

      I’ll be very curious to see if there are any younger voters who post to this website and say that it’s conservitive ideas that motivate them. Ideas like lower taxes, reforming social security, stopping infanticide (aka abortion), protecting America by winning the War on Terror, stopping illegal immigration, more opportunity for everyone through fewer government regulations and health care governed by the market and not insurance companies/the government, to name a few.

    7. BionicBuddha says:

      There never seems to be enough real debate about issues…campaigns are run on smear tactics, soley to discredit the opponent.

      these guys comments talk about the issues. haha if they do get elected on the issues they never follow thru, and if they do its at the end of their term and up for re-election. im not saying just one party is doing this. its all of them. political position anymore is for their personal finance and not really running the country. greed is the new democracy.

    9. Clay Aiken says:

      Good question!! The reason I sing is that I honestly and truly feel that this is what I was born to do. As a wondrous creation of the Creator of the Universe, I know that times can be tough sometimes!! It feels like life is doing all it can to destroy our spirit of love that enables us to enjoy so wondrously all that we have been designed to recreate!! But still, we musn’t give up. We truly and honestly musn’t!! Sometimes when I’ve had a tough day, I like to soak myself in a bath, and reflect on that image that was set before me on a gloomy fall day four years ago.

      I saw Lucifer riding his dragon of terror, seeking to destroy all who opposed him. But I heard a voice, begging me to but whisper a song of joy that would spell doom for the prince of darkness. I couldn’t sing!! Was I afraid? I truly don’t know. But I felt a rage, a humble rage bellowing within me, and I saw it clearly at that moment. I would learn to sing!! And to this day I know that my voice sends shockwaves of despair through the Cosmos, as Lucifer himself tries to shake free of the awesome wonder of all the precious voices joining in one song. His time nears an end, as long as I, and you, keep singing. This I know.

      That is why I sing. Wonderful!!

      Where I live, Australia, it is mandatory to vote. It is probably the major difference between the US democracy and ours. Although a lot of people whine about it, I think that it is a pretty good idea. You can’t complain about the ruling class if you don’t actually bother to have your say.

      Although if you live in a safe Labor electorate like me, your say isn’t worth much really. It is only those that live in swinging electorates that seem to get any money spent on them.

      This is a great way to get more people involved in “the voting voice” and it’s a highly creative channel to do so! Rock on. And Vote!

      Yeah, voting is important here in the UK kind of seems pointless though the only two parties that can win are practically the same. Both stand for the same things but oh well still better than apathy i guess.

      maybe people shouldn’t confuse doing something (voting) with doing something well (voting smart).

      After all, as Zefrank’s dad said: “Why would you do anything unless you were going to try and do it right?”

      Im not voting because I believe this country is lost. It’s been taken over by corporate crooks, and special interest thugs.

      Our sovernty is being depleted by the UN.

      Mexico is floodng us with people who come here illegaly.

      And our politicians do nothing but sling dirt back and forth

      Its over folk. We’re domed.

      That’s why I’m not voting.

    29. wmdavid says:

      Good post and a very good idea. People who don’t vote are just lazy and love to bitch. It has always astounded me that folks that are to lazy to put forth any effort always find the passion to complain.
      bezcool and vote!

    31. jedimerc says:

      If you don’t vote, don’t complain. Those of us who have done our civic duty, regardless of our feelings for the government, should have every right to praise or complain to our elected officials.

      I simply vote because, historically, few people have had that right to influence change, no matter how little we might affect it in a representative republic. It’s better than many of the alternatives. In most parliamentary democracies, you just get to vote for the party, then they choose their candidate. And remember, we’ve only been able to vote for senators since the early 1900′s… before that they were all appointed.

      Let us also not forget that many a soul has died for our right to vote. At least honor them, if nothing else.

    32. Buck's a critic says:

      If you want to honor them, then know what you’re voting for. There’s nothing wrong with not voting if you can be honest with yourself and admit that you don’t understand the issues or the candidates at hand.

      Voting doesn’t give you the right to complain if you didn’t understand what you were voting for, because you didn’t actually contribute to the system.

      The reason I’m voting?

      I’m sick and tired of the poor leadership and scandals that are ubiquitous in both the Republican and Democrat parties, so I’m voting a straight third-party ticket to show that I’m fed up!

      It’s high time for a change, and voting for the same two old parties which really aren’t that much different isn’t going to make it happen.

      If you’re fed up too, I encourage you to vote third party also. Here are some options: Libertarian, Reform, Constitution, and Green.

      Don’t waste your vote. Vote third party!

    38. B. says:

      Yes, to make a change, we must all vote and lets all make sure we vote for someone good this time or atleast better than Bush.

      Voting has to count for something. That is why so much $$, time, and energy is spent on getting your vote. Even Star Jones is jumping into the campaingning vanwagon, backing Ted Strickland. He’s running for gov. of Ohio, you know. ;)

      Will your vote count? Will your vote matter? the answer is yes and yes. It is time to stop with the mindless spin, colorful backdrops at speeches, and made for media packaging. Our country is at stake. We need to fix the national debt issue. Do not fall for “well, as a percentage of GDP…” If I am making $25,000 a year or $80,000 a year, carrying a big balance on my credit card means that I am getting credit card companies rich… the US is making China rich.

      We must be agressive in moving away from fossil fuels. This mean not just new vehicles, but also a greater use of solar and wind, zero energy homes, green manufactuing with lower costs of production to make America competitive again.

      Finally, we must provide universal health care for every American. To start, we should cover all Americans 0 – 18 years old, by allowing people to buy-in to Medicare and Medicaid. This is the cheapest segment of the population to insure. We can then insure everyone else with a series of public private partnership, but life and death should not be a money making business.

      Please VOTE!!!!!! (Hopefully for change… aka Demcrat).

      Please vote George Bush Jr. out of office. As a former soldier who served under his father,Mr. Reagan and the Great President Bill Clinton. I’d only serve under one of these men if I had the chance again…you don’t have to be a “Rocket scientist” to figure it out. Bush Jr. has gotten so many young kids hurt and killed. I don’t see how he can sleep at night. The bottom line is that he,Cheney,Rumsfeld want oil. Condi is too stupid to know the difference and punk Powell got out before they forced him out!

      Vote for the woman sitting at the table at the polling place near the post office that you don’t use anymore,in a neighborhood that she might live in near yours that you’ll probably never visit,as she talks to someone else anyway you don’t know,and holds the pen to the copy of your signature in the polling place book.You’ll probably never see her again,and someone in the local news will copy her.In other countries she wears a military political band on her arm–’SING ONE for the FATLADY these days?’-happy to be an american and voting DEMocrat.
