Do you honestly think working and paying your bills was what Kennedy was talking about when he said "ask not..."? That's absurd. It's the same non-logic that allowed Mitt Romney to counter the fact that not a single one of his sons served in the military in a military action that he wants others' sons to fight, by saying "they are serving their country, they're working on my campaign". ... Ridiculous.
Kennedy was talking about the Peace Corps... about public service... about helping people... the exact polar opposite of what you're talking about. He was talking about altruism. You are talking about self-involvement.
So, when you bemoan the democrats somehow not following Kennedy's words, you probably should understand what he was talking about.
Ohh I see, so since Obama has not served in the Military nor in Combat should we disqualify him as well as Mitt Romney because his sons chose not to serve in the military? Last I checked the military was an ALL VOLUNTEER force. Using YOUR logic you should be voting for McCain since he is the ONLY candidate to have served in the military and Combat.
