AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL




Tomorrow is election day, for the office of, Commander in Chief of the United States of America. I hope that everyone has voted or plan to leave early tomorrow morning with book, music and food for the long lines that await you at the polls. Do not get discouraged while waiting, just remember what we are voting for. We are voting to keep the freedoms that we all enjoy while living in this great country. We are voting to maintain some dignity when we go to our jobs and send our kids off to school. We are voting to keep the same privileges that we have come to enjoy without someone telling us that they are not needed. We are voting to hopefully get to share in some of the wealth that rich people have.

I am working the polls tomorrow as a poll watcher, to ensure that someone that might not be as voter savvy as me can still be treated fairly. I have already voted and want everyone who so desires to get a chance to be a part of history on November 4, 2008. Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said it best, in his "I have a Dream" speech on August 28, 1963; "One hundred years later, the Negro still is not free."

Leave comments on what you are voting for, and what question, if given the chance ,you would ask the two candidates that are running for the highest position in our land.
