Bree, you've been through a fair bit of crap over being in a gay relationship; paying for college, etc, etc.
So, why don't you vote for the party that is most likely to respect your relationship and may even go as far as civil unions that will recognise property rights and all that kind of thing. And the party that will be more likely to help you in college.
That party is not the Republicans.
Please vote, Bree. As a citizen of the world, I beg you to vote. Just this once. Please. Please vote for all of us out here in the world who are also affected by Bush in one way or another, but do not have a say in what the sole superpower does with our planet. We need you, Bree. We need every last one of you to get out the vote - for your own lives at home, and for a bunch of other people's lives out here in the 'other' world.
