Okay, so like I was telling you all, I went to the Women for Obama rally this past Saturday. I went with my mom again and we rallied hard for about 2 hours - I really thought it was a fun experience. There were speeches and signs and a lot of discussion on the amendments, and I felt right at home because so much of what was said (especially about amendment 48) has been discussed in our class.
As I said, I thought this was a fun event. Of course, there were people who drove past and wanted to act foolish, but I thought that this was all a part of the rally experience. The greatest thing that stuck out in my mind about Saturday were the McCain supporters. I was waving around a sign that said change and a man in a pick up truck drove past and flipped me off! Me, being the most patient and understanding person in America, I had to stop myself from stooping to his level. I think I'll be really grateful, no matter what the outcome of this election, when people are done acting stupid. Of course, people very well may continue to act foolish after our president is decided but at least the annoying commercials will go away...

Yes, people certainly can be stupid in these moments. I'm glad you were able to restrain yourself.
As I mentioned before, I'd curious to hear more about the content of the speeches, and especially which amendments were talked about and what the speakers said about them.
