Feeling Old...

For someone who's only 24, I seem to feel old a lot...however, when I opened my first "Social Security Statement" I got another healthy reminder of my steady march away from being "young". I particularly like the little asterisk that says these numbers are not a promise and may be changed at any time due to the actions of Congress because, after all, under current law it will only be possible to pay 75% of benefits by2041.

I support Barack Obama for President



I changed to Obama a few days before Edwards dropped out, and I find it strange that I seem more able to talk to people about why I think Obama is the right choice than I ever was with Edwards. I wonder if hope/change just resonate better with me even if I agree with Krugman that Edwards really shaped the policies advanced on the democratic side of the fence. Policy superiority just wasn't enjoy to pull out the nomination.

If anyone who knows me would like my take on why Barack should be the democratic nominee, please don't hesitate to drop me a line - I would most definitely enjoy talking with you.
