    I have been a voter scince 1968. I have been a register Democrat, but presently I am a registered Independent. The reason for this change. It allows me to vote for either party. I am one, that votes a person not inane objects of party symbols. What I have witness so far is some of the young voters, that are a bit confused as to who, why, what they are voting for. I have noticed here in FLYP a few young Republican voters standing for the existing policies of the current administration. Some have intcated, that they would allow the troops to stay in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is just wrong. These young Republicans are either not cognasant of the ramafacations of failed policies, and are listening to propaganda, that in the long run will hurt our country. As I observe these young Republicans state there case, that it would be better to stay in Middle East. I do not see them enlisting for this futile war for 'OIL' . If these young Republicans are willing to stand behind John McCain and condone his continued policies of this present administration. They need to go to their local recurter and volunteer for service. It has been moted in several publication around our country. Parents pulling their children out of Military type schools. Enlistment is down over 35%. The GOP will continue to spew their message in terms of CUT AND RUN. I am a Vietnam Veteran. I can asure all of these young Republicans, that when there is a failed policy. It is not cut and run. It is common sense. There is no reason whatsoever for more lives to be taken for, again, a failed policy. Until, and I mean until any of these young Republicans experience combat on the battle field, they cannot, with all due respect for their thoughts make comments, as this administration has not. This administration is by far the worse, that this country has ever experience in our existance. Not one, from Bush on down, has ever experience combat. Yet they are the biggest WAR MONGERS. Finally! I would welcome all young Republicans to search their minds, heart and soul. Do not let John McCain continue his 10 yeras of occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan as he said during a rally. It is all on You Tube if you young republicans would like to hear what John McCain said.
