  • 為什麽談政治…

    我發現我的大部分與政治有關的博客總會得到一些評論,說他們不喜歡或不關心政治。所以我想有必要寫這一篇。其實我也不喜歡政治,但我非常關心政治。在這裏要說的是,我並不想把任何觀點強加給任何人,只想告訴大家我的故事…

    5歲時,我想當首位華裔美國總統,很快又想做消防員,接著是警察,所以許多年來我都不關心政治。年幼的我討厭政治言論,太無聊,而且感覺政治跟我毫無關系。在少年和大學時期,我還是不太關心。大學第一年,比爾•克林頓到我學校演講,我給他投了票,那是因為那年我剛滿18歲,覺得投票很酷,不是真的關心。第二次大選我沒投票,2000年也沒有。主要是因為當時我人在香港,不想自找麻煩在異國投票,而且我確信阿爾•戈爾會贏。那時我20多歲,並不怎麽關心世界局勢。坦率的說,我只關心自己和身邊的人。誰贏得大選跟我有什麽關系? 我只想日子過得開心,做自己想做的事。但就是2000年的大選讓我開始覺醒。

    當戈爾贏得民眾投票,卻因為布什的弟弟在佛羅裏達州舞弊而輸掉大選時,我開始思考,”嘿! 等等…到底怎麽回事?”;當布什上任,開始做臭名昭著的壞事時,我開始生氣;當他發動企圖尋找”毀滅性武器”的伊拉克戰爭和抓捕奧薩姆•本•拉登時,我真的覺醒了。後來我們知道,根本就沒有什麽毀滅性武器,況且本•拉登離伊拉克很遠,所以基本上已經花費的和仍在花費的我們繳納的數十億稅款都拿去支持刺殺薩達姆•侯賽因和控制石油,為布什和他的朋友們暴富在服務。這令我非常氣憤。

    作為一個在美國國土外生活的美國人,我發現世界各地的人們開始改變對美國的看法,討厭美國人,我真的為此擔心。還記得在埃及開羅,我告訴一個出租車司機說我來自香港,因為聽完他說如何憎恨”愚蠢、無知的美國人,活該遭受恐怖分子對他們所作的一切”後,我害怕承認自己是美國人。我意識到這是政治的影響,糟糕的政治令我們走到這步田地。

    就在那時我了解到政治非常非常重要。當世界局勢或你的國家、社區情勢大好時,政治看起來沒那麽重要。但當局勢就像現在一樣開始變壞時,政治就顯得十分重要。如果你有權選擇政府,那這很可能是你為國家、社區和自己所能做的最重要的事情。

    如果你還年輕、在學校讀書、還沒工作,那政治可能不那麽重要;但當你開始掙錢、存款、養家,你會開始懂得好的政府、好的政治是你生存的重要因素,政治會影響你做的每件事。

    如果你無法接受良好的教育,那是因為政治;如果你沒有健康保障,是因為政治;如果發生洪水或地震後,政府需要等好幾天才能幫助你,是因為政治;汽油價格上漲,是因為政治;食品物價上漲,是因為政治;如果你失去房子或車子,是因為政治;如果你父母因為銀行破產失去畢生為退休而努力打拼存下的錢,是因為政治;你的朋友參戰,卻躺在棺材裏回來,是因為政治;成百上千的無辜女人和孩子在如緬甸、蘇丹Dafur等國家被殘殺,是因為政治;當你看到香港海港因為富有開發商的影響在慢慢消失,還是因為政治。

    政治帶來的好處也顯而易見:當你看到一次令人驚異、成功的北京奧運會,是因為政治;保護環境的措施被完善,是因為政治;為保護言論自由和人權而制定法律,是因為政治;你看到種族隔離終結,是因為政治;婦女得到平等權益,也是因為政治;若你有幸看到世界和平,還是歸功於政治。

    你生活在此、談論這些時,會發現政治和政府是多麽重要。你的關心很重要,更重要的是你的努力和理解,最低限度你要投票。很多人不希望你關心政治、考慮太多問題,因為這樣他們能更好控制你。美國的政治之所以現在顯得如此重要,是因為坦率來說,美國仍舊是世界最強大的國家之一,他們所作的事情會影響世界的每個人,從中國到非洲到巴布亞新幾內亞。所以非常重要的是,我們需要擁有正直、人道、想帶領這個世界走向美好的領袖。

    你可以選擇不關心,過自己的日子,沒有問題,那是你自己的事,我不會因此對你有異議。但當你長大,開始遭遇各種困難、對世界的狀況感到失望、因邪惡獨裁者的滑稽而遷移,或有些重要東西被奪走時,你能幫得上的只有關心政治和政府。這也就是我現在為何如此關註的原因。

    Dear Daniel,
    Good write up...
    Yes, these are all absolutely the right point of how important of politic to every one of us.. It actually affect the most to those people who are at the middle to lower range citizen... They have no power, have no money, and they don't get to speak up some time..
    I have started voting for the opposition since my 1st vote during at the age of 21.. I have never missed a voting chance...
    I hope we can make change at our next election..
    Thanks for sharing your thought...
    You take very good care and God Bless you and your family... (^__^)...
    Allow me to share your write up... thanks again..

    Poltics is a very sensative subject to write or talk about for that matter.  everyone has their own opinion of it; so when you are in a social enviorment you usally hear that religion and politics arre avoided subjects. You have touched excellant points; you seem to have made a decision of not living in the usa, and see it in a different prospective... you actually see what alot of other countries see and what alot of american citizens stiil do not see.  i enjoyed reading your comments...

    说实话,我改变了对你的看法……
    恩……其实我很支持戈尔,他输了大选真的很遗憾,特别是看到布什的所作所为……相信若他当选美国一定不会像现在这样的!
    当然拉……我支持奥巴马,希望他能为我们呈现一个真正自由民主的美国!

    Good discussion about why learning about politics is important Dan!  I wonder about some things though...  How do you know there was never any WMDs?  Because the media told you?  Do you think the media knows everything?  Think about an idea:  How hard would it be for someone like Saddam to order one of his people to take all the WMD from a storage facility and bury it in the middle of the desert?  Iraq has a lot of desert...  I don't know how they could run out of places to bury it...  If you remember, people like IAEA and UN inspectors went to Iraq before the US military began operations, and Saddam's people wouldn't let them into their facilities to inspect.  At least not until a month or two later, which afforded them plenty of time to load up whatever prohibited items they might have had into trucks and move it to somewhere else.  How long does it take you to pack up everything you own and put it in a truck?

    I won't critique everything you say, because your general message is good.  Its good to be involved in your country's affairs, and try to help do what's best.  One other question for you to think about:

    So an Egyptian taxi driver told you he hated Americans, and that the thought Americans deserved what the terrorists had done.  What does that tell you?  ...  all I can make of it is that he hates Americans... maybe he's sympathetic to terrorists for some reason...  does that mean America has done wrong?  If Khalid Sheik Muhammad tells you he hates America and that all Americans should be killed, does that mean America has done wrong?  If Adolph Hitler tells you that he hates Jewish people, does that mean that Jewish people have done wrong?  If your nasty old neighbor tells you she hates you and your girlfriend, does that mean either of you have done wrong?

    Dan, I can see you're a pretty smart guy and good hearted, I think thats awesome.  So I know you can understand that just because someone hates you, it doesn't mean that you've done wrong, or that you deserve it.

    很遗憾现在才来看到这篇文章写的很真实突然之间觉得你并非适合在娱乐圈,5岁的你就想当首位总统想法超棒难怪你在中国十分受欢迎,如果有人说喜欢吴彦祖是因为相貌,那我认为是在贬低你,你真的是一位很棒的艺人,如果你有一栋你建设的高楼我想肯定是与众不同,当演员太埋没你,希望看到你导演的电影。一起支持奥巴马
