[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 4535197, member: 19675"] I voted- it took only about 10 minutes. That's travel, line, and travel home. Loved it! As for why I voted, why I said in my original post: 1) I'm black- being allowed to vote in this country is relatively new for us, and was a hard won victory that involved actual fatalities. Not voting risks not being able to vote. 2) When I was in HS, Nat Geo had a story about the biggest democracy in the world- India. Ignoring whatever you may believe about the quality of their society, according to that article, they have over 90% turnout, including people who have to be carried from their sickbeds to vote. 3) Nobody is threatening the average American voters with being killed on their way to the polls. There were people threatening the voters of Iraq not that long ago...yet they proudly displayed their blue thumbs. For an able-bodied American not to vote in the light of 2 or 3 is, to me, unthinkable and embarrassing. For a black man like myself, the number of people who died so that I can vote is just that much more reason. I simply [I]can't[/I] "not vote." Besides, for those who still feel disenfranchised, the vote is your best chance for empowerment! Imagine- if everyone who didn't vote this time around + those who voted for a GOP or Dem candidate because their [I]real [/I]candidate couldn't win voted for the same candidate, that candidate would win and win BIG. Anywhoo- the polls are starting to close, so this election's Rubicon has basically been crossed. I may not like whomever gets elected, but he is ours for the next 4 years. I hope he gets it right!
