Feb. 12th, 2008 03:05 pmaccording to glassbooth.org ( http://glassbooth.org/Result/index/1348889/58449f9c1636bde85c39fafe82fefceb ) i should vote for barack obama this fall. (discuss.)
in the comparative poll there, he was closely followed by hillary clinton. i had no idea i was so democratic. (okay, that is kind of a lie; on most issues i am very liberal, but hey, communism looks good on paper, too.) i kind of wanted to vote for ron paul or bill richardson, but apparently neither of them are gonna make it to the general public vote in november.
EDIT: so, you know how there's a difference between learning something and knowing something? learning something is when someone tells you a fact and you say, "okay, sure, i'll accept that this is true"; knowing something is when the fact comes to you without having to think about, just a gut reaction, "i know this to be true". up until today, i have been learning about vector forces in physics. but just five minutes ago, i realized that i knew how vector forces worked. this is really cool. note: if the net force is zero, the object can still be moving.
EDIT2: it would help so much if my physics professor would actually teach us stuff instead of throw homework at us and just expect us to keep up and ask questions next time if we gt lost. i get lost because he hasn't taught us how to do all this crap yet, but it doesn't help that the point where i can go ask questions about the homework is in class the day it is due. it also doesn't help that i can't go to the lab/tutoring/help-center thing because he doesn't assign the homework until the day before. ugh. *fumes*
