Not that I think kids voting is a bad thing, but this shite is getting a fishy smell.

Now LSU posting “be the change” get out to vote. What in the frick is going on here? Hard to believe this isn’t some type of affront to voting Trump out.

Set them up with a free meal and a t shirt for all I care do they think they’re getting automatic tickets punched for Joe Biden?

Because everyone is talking about what they can do to effect change.

Don’t they have vehicles? I don’t want LSU missing a practice, especially the first week of November.

Yes, those that go vote will probably drive themselves or catch a ride with a friend.

Joe Biden's voting history should make a black person wanting criminal justice and law enforcement reform extremely skeptical.

Dude was all in on mass incarceration, mandatory minimums, the war on drugs, etc during his time in the senate.

Those are very valid points. I guess it depends on how sincere/believable/trustworthy they believe Biden to be going forward.

We shall see.

Romney was hurt badly in 2012 because many conservatives didn’t trust him on healthcare

College athletes (especially football) are some of the whiniest children out there.

You get: free education (sometimes up to a Master's), food, counselling, tutor, housing, shoes, clothes, athletic gear, bags, trips, and whatever bowl game spoils, only to still bitch about things.

Not surprising.
JBE used Holder/Obarma money to bus SU, Grambling and high school students to the polls.
The GOP didn't have any comments or countermeasures.

dims have been busing people to the polls for decades. In some cases gubment assets have been used to do it as well.
