Tell A Friend

“Why? Because it is Veterans of the Iraq war talking about the war. No political pundits and no main stream media mouth pieces. Just people who have witnessed the war first hand and are speaking from their own experiences. I think most Americans want to support our troops. What better way to support them than to hear what they have to say?"

My final question was about what her own thoughts were as we begin the primaries and lead into the 2008 election and what being able to legally vote means to her. I couldn’t help but smile at her response,

"I'm excited to be able to vote for the first time because for a long time now I've been involved in politics without being able to vote. Now I think I can call myself a full fledged political junkie and activist."

Like she wasn’t already working for democracy full time?


She went on to add,

"If more young people voted, I believe there would be major change in this country. I hope that I will be in a large crowd of first time voters this year."

Just in the crowd? Somehow this writer thinks it will be Ava Lowery leading the crowd, straight to the polls this November.

*If you would like to help Ava Lowery complete her documentary please go to her website where you will find details on her work and on how you can help.
