I think revenge is okay some of the time. If getting revenge is hurting or killing someone, then it's not okay. If revenge is winning a football game against the team that beat you out of moving on in playoffs the year before, then revenge is sweet. Sweet, sweet revenge!
I think Mr. More is right about revenge. "Those who plot the destruction of others often perish in the attempt." If someone is killing someone else to get revenge, they are the ones who would be going to jail. If convicted of murder, they'll probably serve for life, therefore perishing in their attempt. In other words revenge can be a good thing, or a bad thing, it just depends on what the revenge is being used for.

'08 Election
With the election yesterday, everyone is talking about the outcome of it today. I'm not necessarily upset, or happy, or anything. I'm not old enough to vote, I missed it by a week, so I don't really have a say in the matter. I also don't really have any opinion about who should have won or who would make a better president. I mean either way, history was made yesterday. It would have either been the first African-American as president or the first female vice-president. I did kind of make predictions. I figured Barack Obama would win, just because it's a change from President Bush, and he seemed to be more popular with the citizens. For American Politics I was on the McCain team, but I'm more in favor of Obama, so if I was old enough to vote, that would have definately effected my vote. As for their campaigns, I do think they influenced the vote. Obama had more money to spend on advertising and he did. More people saw his campaigns than McCain's, therefore more people would've voted for Barack Obama. If I had the opportunity to vote for any one person in the world to be president, I have no idea who it would be, I really don't. I guess that's something I'll have to think about and get back to you on.
