Lesley, HP, & Politics

Hey everyone this is Lesley and since I love Harry Potter so much I thought I would try and express my passion through words. Actually, I mostly just wrote this because Tiffany has sent me and the other DA founders upwards of thirty emails encouraging us to do so. In any case, Harry Potter is unlike any other series that has ever been written. Or will be for that matter. But to truly understand the miracle that is Harry Potter, one must also explore the culture that surrounds the series. When JK Rowling wrote her exquisite chronicles, she laid the groundwork for the greatest cultural revolution that readers have ever seen. Harry and his crew have inspired numerous fanfic and forum sites, musical groups, and short film makers. Today, I want to alert all Harry Potter lovers to the phenomenon that is HP Alliance. This organization applies Dumbledore's ethics and morals to the real world by battling the Sudanese government, world hunger, big media, and corrupt economic policies. This week the alliance urges you, as Harry Potter fans, to encourage anyone who is 18 or older to register to vote in celebration of National Register to Vote Week. Lets Wizard Rock the Vote!!!!

Ya, Lesley!!! So guys, I second the initiative to get people to vote! Now... how to express one's love for Harry Potter. The story is just one you can always go back to for a comfort read (though just in my opinion). Hmf, how hard to express in words, so: <333333 HP!
