Oh I am so envious of all you voters. I am an immigrant, not yet able to become a citizen of the greatest country in the known universe, and therefore not able to vote. I am so looking forward to earning my citizenship and then being able to fully participate in being an American, hopefully for the 2012 general election. To be able to vote is such an honour.

Which is why I get a little hot under the collar when I hear folks telling me or others that they haven't time to vote, or they can't be bothered standing in line for 30mins or so.  We are lucky, upon attaining age 18 we are blessed with the right to vote, (I am referring to US born 18yr olds) all a person has to do then is register and then they can actually vote, how hard is that? I cannot imagine having to walk for days as in the case of some people in Africa so that they can make a mark that they hope will effect their lives. So you can see why I get angry when US citizens " can't be bothered", it's almost too easy!

I want everyone who can to get out and vote, you are voting for me and for others who cannot yet vote, like your kids or grandkids and the kids your kids will have.

Tomorrow I will hear, like many of us will, people complain because the candidate they voted for didn't win. We will also hear others complain even though they didn't vote, they are the ones who are first to complain but last to act, usually. Tomorrow we will have a President elect. I hope that my guy wins, but if he doesn't I will support the President to be because we need to work together to rebuild the confidence in our great country, not only abroad but right here at home.

So please go and vote, ask your neighbor if he/she has voted, be a participant today, the outcome will have such a massive effect on all our lives.

Thank you all for Voting.
