“Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich, by promising to protect each from the other.” – Author unknown
(This would be funnier, if it wasn’t so often true) Hopefully as we head out to vote in the primary election on August 3rd, we can discern between those with empty promises and those who truly have great ideas and a desire to facilitate change. (call me naive, but I do believe we have candidates like this.)
As I’ve said before, and will most likely say again, it is up to us to “let our voices be heard”, we need to take the time to get to know the candidates and the issues and where each stands on them, and then… get out and vote.
Or, will you take the Forrest Gump approach and reach in that box of chocolates and just hope you come out with something palatable?
Whoever you may support…”Let your voice be heard”…VOTE!
