I stumbled upon ill doctrine through a video on racism that Carlos posted on his blog.
This guy Jay Smooth, is pretty intelligent, and is definitely going to be a blog I check out regularly. Take a gander at this video he recently posted, then head over to ill doctrine and show him some love.

Letters to the next President
I do not normally do this, however North Point has started, or is starting a new series called Letters to the Next President. They have a website to go along with it where you can “write a letter to the next president.”
I’m not a fan of those types of things, as most of you know however, I am a fan of politics and enjoyed reading what people have posted thus far. As we go deeper into the election season it is beneficial to the candidates and those involved in campaigning for them to know what it is people are desiring out of the next leader of their country.
