Vote.
Listen,we don't get drafted anymore in this country...and tons of people even try to get out of jury duty because they feel it's too inconvenient.
People often say many Americans don't vote because they feel it doesn't make a difference.I don't believe this at all. I think people don't vote mostly because they feel it's too inconvenient and many are just too lazy.
...But as has been said - people have died for this privilege...don't waste it.
People in some countries still risk death for this very privilege...again, don't waste it.
Please vote.
Technically, Love of Country doesn't really DO anything, on the other hand, it means everything.
RIP in blessful peace this thread for four years - or at least until the mid terms
And well done to Trish and the others here who kept prodding
and thansks to Seanchai for leaving this thread in the general forum
good day sunshine
Thanks again Seanchai.
Thank you everyone who bumped this thread in agreement with its plea or in annoyance.
To those of you who helped and encouraged others to vote, thanks.
And of course thanks to everyone who exercised their right and voted.
from the US census, about 2/3 of our population is eligible to vote, or 200,000,000 people. Roughly 116,000,000 people voted yesterday (and though that number will rise with provisional and absentee ballots) its unfortunate that so many waste their opportunity.
i'd like to personally apologize for 4 people. my mother and sister here in NYC that claimed Obama would win NY anyway so they didn't vote. My sister in law and her husband in FUCKING OHIO, both attendings at OSU, didn't vote either because they were too busy. What can I say...everyone I am related to, other than my wife, is retarded. I'm sorry.
You can bring a horse to water...it's not your fault if it doesn't drink.
I remember Art Buchwald writing a funny column on why you don't need to vote, like a top ten list, and the one I remember is:
Two of the members of my carpool are Republican, and two are Democrats, so we just all agreed not to vote.
If Prospero had boobs, I'd kiss his ass,
Thanks to all the opinion-voicers, I love it. I love it.
SUPER-THANKS to Trish, your clarity is a never-ending mystery to me....
All's well that Ends well
Damn it got so epic in here that I missed out on this shit.
