This girl is special guys... with the opportunities that crown would give her, she would make such a difference in so many lives. While most of the other contestants were spending their last few days getting manicures and finalizing their wardrobe, CC Barber was in Kenya with World Hope, giving medical care to infants and families in poverty


You are right, no one else would make any difference. It's not like Miss Kentucky had to overcome her parents being murdered, or miss Virginia growing up homeless and in poverty, or Miss Peurto Rico spending 4 years in 3rd world countries making a real difference.

I hope you sleep well at night.



how is it cheating? it's a public vote and everyones allowed to try to convince as many people as possible to vote for them.

You are ridiculous. Here's why.

There may be other deserving candidates. But the difference is, she knows miss Oregon personally and knows she is a good person and what she is capable of, thus she feels there is a better chance that this person will make more of a postive difference than the others and wants to maximize the probability that she will win.

Also, you have failed to consider how the other contestants are getting votes. Do you think the vast majority of votes are people who just stumble on the site and say "hey, I'm going to watch all the videos to make sure I give all the candidates a fair chance?" Further, even if someone did that, do you think it would give an accurate enough picture of each candidate to make the best decision? The reality is, almost everyone who goes there to vote already knows who they are going to vote for before or if they watch the videos, whether they know the candidate personally, saw them at their local pageant, or have been directed in some other form through an advertisement such as this thread.

For the love of god, get off your high horse. Are you telling me that you never do anything to help your friends or family over other people just because they are your friends and family and you think they deserve it more than others? "I hope you sleep well at night." ROFL are you kidding me?

So you're argument is basically everyone else is doing it, so why can't she? I don't necessarily agree with that argument. I find it incredibly scummy that she mostly just comes here to ask for help from the community and uses cute girlish gestures to appease her so called fellow "Nerds".

I'm also pretty sure most contestants aren't appeasing large internet groups who they aren't very familiar with for votes. At most, people would be making Twitter/Myspace/FB announcements to their friends/family for votes.

But some of those contestants OBVIOUSLY ARE. I mean seriously, you really think those states with 3k+ votes didn't do something like this?

Also, lol at Cali with 60 votes. Biggest state for the lose.

You can't know for sure. I'm guessing it's people close to the participants who are rallying individuals from their community to help support them and vote, not asking random people on the internet for votes. It's easy to look and think that they are abusing the system as well, but what if people are spreading the word at church, community meetings or local media within the state?

That's because many Californians that would vote in this don't really like Miss California (the one that replaced the old one and the old one). That and I haven't seen any ads for this anywhere so it's likely only people that are involved with this or are riled up to vote like us do so.

So they're rallying one community and she is rallying another.
The difference is in the degree of separation. It seems unlikely that Miss New Hampshire personally knows all 4000 of the people that have voted for her, so someone is rallying some strangers for her as well.

I honestly don't see the difference. I'm sure all the contestants hit up their surrounding community, but keep in mind the difference of living in say.. New York or Los Angeles or whatever vs living in some 3k population town in rural Alabama. One has a clear advantage in the "rallying votes" game.
Nobody is playing this "fair". They aren't going to their friends and family and neighbor's, etc. and asking them to view all the videos and choose who they think is best. No. They are saying "Hey vote for me in this contest. Thanks."

If you want to make more than 1 vote. do a Google search for free "web proxy" and vote more than once using a proxy site. www.unblockmyspace.com is a good example.
