Ashley's Vlog Post 7

In which I discuss MEETING OBAMA at the youth forum hosted by MTV/BET/CMT from a couple weeks back, as well as today's Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear and my uni's homecoming.

Note on the rally: while I had a ton of fun, Jon lost me and quite a few other people when he was saying that Tea Party people aren't racist and that we need to discern real racism from Tea Party racism. There is being moderate and there is lacking perspective. "Real racism" doesn't automatically mean overtly racist acts, and it's dangerous to assume that. Either way, still had fun but the metro system was a DISASTUH.
