I think I'll just hitch hike to Canada.
You are on the cusp of one of the potentially most important elections of America's lifetime. (I know, many Republicans don't think so.) But it has already been a history changing election season, and that was just the primaries.

Why would you hitch hike to Canada, when you are in the US for one of the most exciting election cycles EVER? It doesn't matter if you are old enough to vote or not. The person elected will affect your life. So you have two choices: be apathetic and ignore, or get interested and talk about it. You surely have friends who can vote. What do they think? Talk to your parents or other people. This is one of the things that is not only our right, but is our responsibility as people with the freedom to choose thier leader. Many people in the world aren't that lucky. It's easy to get spoiled, but we have already lost a lot of freedoms over the last 6 years, and I hope we don't lose more.
