" Hey there! Have you been watching the Democratic National Convention? I have! No matter who you&amp;#039;re rooting for in this presidential election, it&amp;#039;s interesting to see politics come alive like they have been for the last few nights. Plus, this is such a historic convention with Barack Obama becoming the first African American to lead a major party ticket. I&amp;#039;m really looking forward to seeing him speak tonight! Michelle Obama&amp;#039;s keynote speech earlier this week was also really inspiring. I thought she did a great job!  For those of you who are 18, make sure you&amp;#039;re registered so you can vote on Nov. 4! Check out seventeen.com/declareyourself to find out how. And for those of you who can&amp;#039;t vote yet, but are wondering how you can get involved with this election (or how the issues discussed will affect you), bookmark seventeen.com&amp;#039;s Electionista blog and check it daily for new posts!  So, what are your thoughts on the DNC? Or, are you more interested in the Republican Convention? Let me know! XOXO, Ann PS- Have a wonderful holiday weekend! :) "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
