Election Day

Here it is folks! A day that could change American history forever. Who will be the next President of the United States? Barack Obama or John McCain- -are either of them ready? This is a job that has no training available. You either sink or swim.

However, let's not forget the President is in some ways just a figure head. It is our Congress who actually decides.

I waited in line for an hour and fifty minutes today to cast my vote. I voted a straight ticket so it took me about three minutes to read through everything and make sure I was voting for the party that I wanted too.

Twenty years ago today, I cast my first vote for President. I had registered as the same party as my parents because back then that is what you did. Especially if you didn't know better or understand how American politics work. Needless to say that day I made a decision that haunted me for quite a long time.

What American's should understand now is that it doesn't matter if you are a Republican or a Democrat. It just matters that you are an American. It is time to get back to the basics and take the pride in our country that our ancestors had when it all began.

GO VOTE
