Barack and Roll

PS to my last post...Aaron is the shit and I HEART him too.

I have almost just decided to wait another year before going to law school. As in, I will begin (fingers crossed that I actually get in somewhere) in Fall 2009. I have to decide whether I want to start in 08 right now because if so, I have to take the LSAT in exactly two months, before I go to SA. It seems ridiculous to be making big life decisions on the fly and based on advise from friends, but that is my reality. And my friends are saying that I should wait to take the LSAT and take another year off. But that makes me sad because 1) then I won't be in the same year as some of my friends who might go to law school in 08, and 2) I will have lost the jump start on life that I got from going to college early.

And I have something to say about Hillary Clinton. While I admire her greatly and am very happy to have her representing NY in the Senate, I do not think that she is the uber experienced shoe-in for President that the media and so many other people treat her as. I know I am clearly biased towards Barack, but really? Was everyone else just watching another debate this week? Because Hillary hardly dominated. And if Barack supposedly displayed his inexperience in answering that he would end the US' policy of ignoring dictators in order to somehow pressure them into cooperation, then experience is not what this country needs. Hillary is too old school (in the non-coolest sense possible) and her position on the war in Iraq suggests calculation rather than anything resembling leadership.

If Barack does not win the Democratic nomination (assuming that Gore doesn't get it either) then we have once again lost.
