I received this powerful email from my friend Erica which further expresses the importance of voting. Thanks for sharing Erica, this really hit home….
Never forget the price paid for where you stand today. Tell your children so they may never forget where we once were…
This was once our resumes…
None of us has had to experience the pain of separation or live with the disgrace and humiliation that comes with not being free.
When you cast your vote for who will run our country, never forget your history and keep this bill of sale in mind.
When we allow ourselves to forget our not so distant past, then we are destined to repeat these actions in our future.
Stand for those who came before us and those who could not stand up for themselves.
VOTE!
I encourage you to share this with everyone you know.

Yes make sure you VOTE!!! This may be the most important election to take part in your lifetime. With the economy around the world being really bad this is going to be huge to who gets in office this time.
You’re absolutely right, we should all vote.
Living in the UK we had the suffragette movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries who campaigned, and in some cases died, to secure votes for women. We owe it to them to vote now.
Voting is extremely important, I am glad you are helping spread the world. It is also important to remember not to listen to the TV or Radio if they say your candidate has it in the bag. Even if they say he has it wrapped up, still get out and vote, because there are a lot of media outlets out there.
Good point. I was impressed with the turnout today when I voted, as well as all the younger people that came out.
By the way, did you know that more Irish people were sold as slaves during the 17th century (to British colonies anyway)? I just read that the other day – I did not know it before. I forget the source, though. Another classic sign from our past is the employment one with the footer that “no Irish or Negroes need apply”.
So yeah…go vote!
Thats the point and Wooohooo
OBAMA Wins, all the gossips turned out to be vague. And the hero wins again:)
Yes. Everyone should vote in the election. In my opinion if you dont vote in the elections then you should not question government on any means.
