Ben & Jerry’s is making ice cream lovers an offer they can’t refuse - free ice cream, free music, and the opportunity to have a voice in the next presidential election. On Tuesday, April 27th, from noon to 8:00 p.m., in Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops across the country and around the world, ice cream lovers can enjoy a free cup or cone of their favorite flavor all day long!
And as if getting free ice cream wasn’t cool enough, this year Ben & Jerry’s is adding a new twist to Free Cone Day that they’re calling “ETOV - Turn it around!” Through a partnership with Rock the Vote, ice cream lovers can register to vote in their local Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops. Still want more? Ben & Jerry’s is also offering an exciting sweepstakes and free song download offer, and encouraging voters to take an online “Oath to Vote” at www.benjerry.com

Rock the vote is the stupidest #### ever. People who register to vote because they get free ice cream don’t deserve to vote.

You get free ice cream whether or not you register to vote. They’re just taking it as an opportunity to reach all the people who might show up for free ice cream.
I can’t find any evidence of a download contest at benjerry.com. Am I missing something?

Yah… I’m already registered to vote. I just want free music… Ice Cream is nothing more than fat and sugar. Two things you need less of when you’re my size…
