Please Vote For Me
Just watched this... it was freakin "awesome". Mad "heartwarming" and funny and just crazy interesting in general.
It is a social experiment/documentary. "A documentary about a class of Chinese third graders who hold a democratic election for classroom monitor and in the process end up hilariously, if unintentionally, mocking 300 years of American politics. (Wholphin DVD)" From imdb: Wahun is a city in China the size of London where an experiment in democracy is conducted. At Evergreen Primary School, a grade 3 class learns what democracy is when an election for class monitor is being held. Three children are chosen by the teacher as candidates and they have a few days to campaign and convince their classmates to vote for them. The little candidates are seen at school and at home, where their parents do their best to make sure their child will win the election. Anyway, it is all on YouTube actually. You should watch it but you probably won't because it is a Chinese documentary. If you are interested in this shit though or you are bored you should def check it out because I <3 it. Even though it is a Chinese documentary I would recommend this to anyone. I can't see how anyone wouldn't enjoy it. Here is the first part... the rest is all on youtube also.

I wanted the little girl to win. She had no mic skills and just started crying all the time, that held her back a lot.

Almost done with this and will comment more. But why is everyone running around in their underwear in this movie. Not even Cheng Cheng, but Double L (skinny) was in a restaurant with his family, and the next table there were three guys just in boxers.

China is a warm place. You know, where I live it isn't even that warm but I still like to exercise my constitutional and democratic right to walk about my own home in just my boxers.

But they were in a restaurant.
So yeah I finished it, pretty amazing. Shows you that money/bribes gets the win. Felt sorry for the girl, but she never had what it took. Can't have a slow eater running things. Cheng Cheng was a huge heel at first, it was so awesome. Then he turned face. Double L was apparently such a bully, should have showed videos of him beating on kids. Not sure who I would have voted for though, as not positive what the position required really. Cheng Cheng would have got bored of doing it after a day it seemed like. I bet the girl would have done a good job though, cause girls like to take time on stupid shit and make sure it is good. Also this made me want to be in 3rd grade again. Everyone is so cute back then, like wish I had videos of me in 3rd grade. |

I think she meant she hasn't cried much since she got to 3rd grade. The skinny kid said he was 8 years old.

Yeah def were in 3rd grade. No way they were 6th graders. You have a terrible sense of judgment for how old kids are assman.
