My vision for a better community and world is one in which every transgender man feels at home and comfortable in his body and daily life, and my idea for making it happen is to produce medical prosthetics and other products so transmen (female-to-male transsexuals) can live happy, comfortable, functional lives as men.

Lowering the Voting Age

Last updated by njensen on Thu, 11/06/2008 - 13:21.
The problem that I am trying to combat is voter apathy and injustice. If we can bring young people into the system earlier, while they are more likely to get involved, they might have civic responsibility instilled in them for life. Since this would affect young perople still in high school, it would be easier to educate voters about the issues and make a more informed electorate. The injustice that this movement combats is that in many states, young people as young as 14 years old can be tried as adults in court but can not vote.

PEACE IS THE GOAL

Last updated by peaceisthegoal10 on Wed, 11/19/2008 - 17:58.
My name is Mitchell and I’m a 16-year-old student/soccer player from Wisconsin. I started Peace Is The Goal as a goodwill initiative in October 2006 when I was 13 years old. This ongoing initiative aims to make the world a better place to live in by spreading the message of peace and giving through “the world’s game”, soccer. Many kids in the world have little, if anything. They are desperately looking for something positive to do. They love the sport of soccer, but many don’t even have real equipment to play the game. Rocks, plastic bottles or garbage are often used as balls.
