(If you are living in America )

It is a privelage to vote and to live in a free country. A privelage that so many people in the world do not have. Coming from a communist country, where people live in repression and with no vote-I FEEL SO LUCKY TO LIVE IN AMERICA.This is the country that has allowed me to live the way I want, to make my dreams come true. It is my duty as an American, and as a free citezen to VOTE -and to not take that privelage for granted. It is EVERYONE'S DUTY as a free American citezen to vote. Please do not take that freedom for granted. REGISTER TO VOTE!!!!!!

I totally agree Allanah
It seems very fashionable to be cynical about politics nowdays.
To have the attitude that whoever wins in November will have no impact on our day to day lives
But at the end of the day, Obama and McCain will run the Federal government in very different ways. And the way foreignors perceive America will be drastically changed by the outcome of this race.

I can't imagine anyone who reads or watches a minute of the news on TV or the net not leaning one way or the other, even if it's a tiny bit, and even if you change your mind a few times between now and November, that's OK.
but not voting on Election Day is plain stupid.

Im thinking about voting for McCain only because the person i vote for always loses.

[flabbybody]

that could be a problem if everyone's thinking like you

Now is probably the worst time to throw away your vote.

It's almost more of a duty then a privilege to vote. I didn't vote during the last presidential election, because I showed up at the voting place in my neighborhood and there were over a hundred people standing in line.

"Fuck this", I thought, and I left. There were probably a few million people across the country who did the same thing, and we ended up with a second term for Curious George. That was stupid on my part.

Wait in line. Read a book, do whatever to kill time and get to the voting booth. It's the most important duty a person has as a citizen of the US.

no its not.
voting is a waste if you are not working to improve things in your own community.

I won't say who you should vote for (at least in this thread).

But on Tuesday, November 4, 2008, please vote.
