The Election

THIS IS GREAT GREAT WEBSITE: http://www.fightthesmears.com/



So this year I have been paying very close to the election. This is a very important year. This not only depicts my future but also the future for my children. I have not missed a debate and read everything I can, to keep me up to date. I am a person who doesn't believe in pushing politics or religion on people. But I do ask if you are going to vote Please pay attention to the election. Don't vote if you haven't. There are so many people who vote do to ignorance. There are so many true and false things flying out of control. So if you don't know something for sure research it, do not believe it unless you know for 100% sure that it is indeed true.

I am getting myself so worked up over this whole thing. I am personally for Obama. I have nothing personal against McCain I just weigh out what i want more in my president. I am not going to stope as low as a lot of people and talk shit about McCain just because I am not voting for him. I think people are voting for the wrong reasons. Look at what your candidate is offering, Don't look at his skin color or his religion or where he is from. Ask your self what you personally want.
And if you are going to throw things out there, Then at least be able to back them up.



Here are some facts:

John McCain and the troops:

US troops overseas contributed six times as much to Barack Obama as they did
to John McCain;
