Don't be a dummy...VOTE SMART!


I am a firm believer in the saying "if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything" - I can't remember exactly who said it, nor does that matter (at least not to me). After watching the 3rd and final presidential debate I discovered my stance on politics...and it may shock you, but I am not a Democrat!

I will say that I lean so far left, that I should have fallen over a long time ago! While filling out my absentee ballot I realized that while this election will be a huge historic milestone regardless of the outcome...I am tired of hearing about the "presidential" and "vice-presidential" angles of it.

Forget raising income taxes...what about the local proposition in my hometown that wants to allocate $180,000,000 to a freakin' tennis and aquatic center?!?! It's time to wake up and be informed about this entire political process and not just the rockstars of the election! Before you fill out your ballot, find about about your state and local politicians. A good place to start would be Project Vote Smart...you simply enter in your zip code and they give you ALL of the information.

Now that I have provided you with all the facts, I gotta let you know that I heart Barack Obama and Joe Biden...I think they are the change America needs! But it doesn't matter to me WHO you vote for...just please know WHAT you're voting for!

STAND UP: VOTE EARLY TODAY OR ROCK THE VOTE NOV. 4TH!
