I can’t remember a midterm election that felt this important. I don’t just feel like it’s my responsibility or my right to vote….this time I feel like I’m doing my part in trying to save our Country for my grandchildren…I want them to have strong morals and the self satisfaction of a good work ethic ..I want them to live in a Country whose "values contribute positively to society". As far as I know there are three kinds of governments in this world...monarchies, dictatorships and democracies. I want my grandchildren to live in a Country where democracy rules. I know I’m only one vote, I happen to believe every vote counts. I could never justify not voting….It amazes me that people will vote for contestants on American Idol or Dancing with the Stars…or they get their feathers ruffled over sports and celebrities but the direction our Country is headed isn’t worth 5 minutes at the Polls. I’m a very conservative Independent but it’s still important to me that every single liberal makes the future of the United States they’re priority…not just on election day but hopefully before that. I look at policies and past records when I vote…but a persons character, morals, values…a person’s honesty and integrity speaks loudest. Dancing with the Stars is on tonight…I can’t wait to see who gets voted off…much like I feel right now about this election.
