We don't need more uninformed and ignorant voters.
There are too many Democrats in office as it is.

Public opinion opposed sharing your political views at work, according to a previous SodaHead poll. Celebs, however, want to encourage voters to express themselves on social media. Celebs including Zac Efron, Selena Gomez, Ellen DeGeneres, Jonah Hill, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Edward Norton, Sarah Silverman, Benicio Del Toro and Amanda Seyfried have participated in public service announcements like "Vote 4 Stuff."
"This is one of the most important elections of our lifetime," said DiCaprio, whose production company, Appian Way, is a sponsor of Vote 4 Stuff. "We are using the power of social media throughout the Vote 4 Stuff campaign to incite bipartisan conversation around real issues, encourage registration and voting in November."
Should celebs encourage the public to express their political views publicly on social media? How much does this differ from talking about politics at work? Should people talk about politics at school? Separately, does "Vote 4 Stuff" sound like an American value?

The dead heads will always blindly follow these intellectually numb folks. The folks that look to silly-assed celebs to validate their superficial existence - will always be sallow and challenged.

and tend to vote for Government freebies....when knowelegable voters realize...
that nothing is free and will have to be paid for through your taxes....

legal voting age. Political appathy and voter appathy may not be solely accountable for
putting our nation in the doldrums, however they've both sure contributed their fair share
to this living nightmare that the US and the world are both having to go through.
The catchphrase should be "KNOW the vote!" rather than get out the vote.
