Today is an interesting day in United States of America... Election day. All around the world, people are looking to the election in the United States to give them insight into the American psyche.
Of course, here at home, we have been bombarded with campaign pronouncements and never ending punditry. But all the hoopla boils down to a simple concept... If you want a say in how the government of the United States is run, you need to go to the polls and vote!
I have heard all kinds of excuses...."My vote doesn't count"; "It doesn't matter"; "Every time I try to vote, I am voting against somebody, not for somebody"; "They are all crooks anyway". My answer to that is very simple.... "Bull"! Whether you like the candidates, or hate the candidates, even if you need to hold your proverbial nose in the voting booth, it is your civic responsibility to vote!
So where ever you may be today, exercise your constitutional right and vote for the candidate of your choice!
