I just think it's important to get out there.
I usually try not to stand on soapboxes, though.
If I have something to say, I'll put it in my music, and I'll put it out there.
Well, that's the best way to get it to people anyway.

Well, you know, look, I think it's out there.
I think it's always been out there.

So really where it ends up happening is that by the time I get to the voting booth, I'm hoping that I'm properly informed.
