To Vote or Not to Vote??? That is the question!

Since the last presidential election in 2000 many Americans were sceptical on the whole voting process. Without going into too much political wooohaaaa the electoral college plays a huge role in the selection of who becomes president, but after everything our vote does count!!! Some of us may not go out there and vote because we are distrustful of politics. But I think that we have had enough in the past eight years! You may be thinking, well I just won't vote and let the others decide, besides it seems everyone is voting for the one "I want" to win. But that's the wrong approach to take, just get out there and do it!



The war in Iraq has cost the U.S. at least $5 billion. Now you tell me, how many different ways could we have distributed that amount of money in the United States? It could have gone towards hiring more teachers, more health care, and more money towards scholarships for college. And that is just three things that I have listed. I worked for an agency that involved a lot of presidential matters, and until the day I die I will remain loyal to that agency. But I think that I have the right to my opinion, and my opinion is that we need a leader that can come up with a different strategy, a strategy that will help the nation get back on the balance that it needs.



I hope you all have made up your mind to vote for Barack Obama!




And no, this is not a copy and paste type picture. My friend Lory and I actually had the honor to meet Obama September of 2007. It was a neat experience and I believe that he can make the difference! I actually dislike how I came out, but oh well it's OBAMA in the pic. :)
