Project History/Goals

Project History/Goals

The Voice was originally a single edition political newspaper, created by a friend as a senior project. Some time afterwards she said that I should continue it. Whether the suggestion was in jest or sincerity, I took her up on it.

The original was fortunate enough/unfortunate enough to have the upcoming 2000 election to base much of the material on. For this online edition, the scope is going to be broadened a bit more. This can best be described in the three-fold mission statement.

1) To gather real information on events/issues/ideas which are important for everyone to know something about, in order to be able to fufill their responsibility as an American, and as a World citizen.

2) To encourage everyone, especially young people, to think seriously about these things, and to discover their own veiwpoints and beliefs on them.

3) To provide a forum for the interchange of these viewpoints, particularly in the manner of well thought out and organized 'articles'.

The Voice Project is not exactly a newspaper, but it's not exactly just a message board either. Instead, it is a basis for the serious but compact purusal of all things 'political' in this day and age.
