7. Alabama needs to roll in to at least the 19c , 21 would be nice
I used to live there, being out gay in 1980 was hazardous to your health.
That was where i ran off some wanna be house/cross burners with a 12g in 82.
I was the one that got serious harassment by the pigs, all the time being pulled over on specious suspicion shit.

4. Let's not
I'd have to leave, not being American.

Plus you'd split the left wing vote and give the Republicans more power. What do you think the 'DU Party' would achieve that the Green Party hasn't?
