Thanks for participating in our first online poll. As I am writing this, the most popular answer is “I would never vote for right-wing parties,” but there were also a lot of votes for “I might vote for them because I think Japan needs a change.” I agree 100% that Japan needs a change, but I cannot imagine that an 80-year-old nationalist is the way for this country to move forward. Unfortunately, however, I don’t have the right to vote in Japan, so I can’t do anything except trust the good sense of Japanese people. Yoroshiku! There must be some good politicians around who don’t want to try to take Japan back to the way it used to be before the war.<\/p>\n
The discussion about black and white was also very interesting, so thank you Biwa for bringing it up. Maybe we could use that as a topic again sometime in the future.<\/p>\n
Here is some feedback on your comments.<\/p>\n

\nI think some of those right-wingers are quite fluent speakers (or shall I say too noisy?), and hence they just grab people\u2019s hearts dissatisfied with the current government.

\nIf you check the entries of Jan 15 and 17, 2007 on David\u2019s blog of ALC\u2019s website, you can see his face. FYI
