Really?

I just learned last night that the 600,000 residents of Washington D.C. cannot vote for the president since they are not a state.  If they had been allowed like the rest of the American taxpaying residents they could've changed the 2000 election and maybe Al Gore would've won instead of Stupid George W. Bush!

A lot of the residents are understandably mad that they live inside this country, but are not allowed to vote because of a technicality.  Maybe someday they will become our 51st state.  They already have made a new flag design with 51 stars in case their dream does come true.
