Views From a Liberal Teenager
Sunday, May 15, 2005
  My first post is going to be about me. My name is Chance. I am a seventeen year old Liberal who lives in Oklahoma. I admit I am in the minority but I still have the right to speak out. At times, it does suck being surrounded by Republicans and conservative Democrats. Anyways, I have been interested in politics since a very young age. I knew something was wrong when I would be watching the news while other kids my age were watching basketball or baseball. Many of my family members have went on to become politicians, mainly in tribal government (I am a Chickasaw indian) but two of my cousins became Governors of Oklahoma.

I really started to get interested in politics in 2000. Gore was basically screwed out of the Presidency so I decided to get active. I volunteered for my first campaign in 2002. I worked for my State Senator and then I helped the Governor but sometimes I wonder if it was really worth it. They both seem to be riding on the backs of the Republicans. I volunteered again in 2004 for Kerry and as we all know, he lost. I will stop running my mouth now but THANKS for reading.

Hopefully, this blog will get better as more people start to read it.

Hey, Chance

Welcome to the Blogosphere. Good luck with your blog; I hope you stick with it and use it to great advantage to bring Oklahoma leftward!

I will make a suggestion: go to BlogOklahoma.com and join. You will need to put a link on this blog back to that site, but that's the only stipulation and it is a really good web ring that will get a lot of readers to your site. There are a number of left/liberal/progressive bloggers that belong to it (and of course all other political persuasions), so you will be in good company.

PS I found your blog through the DemoOkie Forums (though I am actually a Green).
 
Chance,

Great blog! I read your posts on DemoOkie regularly and am always impressed.

I work with Kalyn Free at INDN's List, and would like to send you the application for INDN Campaign Camp. Can you email me at philippe@indnslist.org so that I can get it to you?

This blog was created because I wanted a place that I could share my views about politics. There isn't many teenagers that have a passion for politics but I am one that does. Yes, I am a liberal so if you are a conservative, you might want to leave now.
