On This Day:
Monday November 6, 2006

This is the 310th day of the year, with 55 days remaining in 2006.

Oh, yeah and its MY BIRTHDAY!

Fact of the Day: presidential candidate

If you want to be President of the United States, you must meet a few eligibility requirements. The United States Constitution states that to be eligible for the Presidency, a candidate must be a natural-born citizen (or a citizen of the United States at the time the U.S. Constitution was adopted), must be at least 35 years of age, must have been a resident of the United States for at least 14 years, and cannot have already served more than one term. Martin Van Buren, the eighth President of the United States, was the first president not born a British subject, or even of British ancestry.

p.s. If you haven’t, go watch HBO’s Hacking Democracy. This incredible documentary shows how chillingly and terrifingly simple it is to hack electronic ballots.

The 2004 elections still got ya down? Watch this and you’ll be pretty livid. Followed by majorly depressed.

Make mine Diebold!!
