Thesis to Prop 8

In Kim's article, "Marital Discord: Why Prop 8 Won", he highlights why the campaigning against prop 8 failed. A main reason why it did fail was because the the campaigning did not aim towards the people, mainly the reason but without people supporting it, it has no reason. And another reason is that there was no direct approach with the reason, rather they tried to come around it with a akward angle.Kim doesn't show his full support to the fact that the homosexual part of the world and that they are greatly discriminated. People need to realize that it really does not matter who other people like. He also fails to recognize that the youth of America is still strongly outvoted at the polls by the elderly who are not for same sex marriage. Religious and moral elements are the same if not a bigger factor to why proposition 8 was passed.

    I don't think that Americas' youth are outvoted, I think that Americas' youth are strongly not interested.

    I agree with Angela here. Americas' youth is not interested. They don't see a need to vote, primarily because they are taught on the voting process but not informed or educated properly in the reason to vote. They don't feel the impact on their lives that not voting has. Once they see and feel that in their own lives through trial and error, through lesser wages, paying more taxes, paying more at the pumps, their rights being ignored, or taken from them, or their children, then and only then will they feel the need and see the reason to vote. Maybe through better educating our teenagers for lifes what-to-come senarios for bring to the youth the experiences of the elderly so that the polls will be more balance.


    Wow, sorry....i went off.
