Today was a great day for the REPUBLIC of the United States of America! Today I voted in the 2008Presidential election. You see I will be South Africa on a mission outreach trip when our general election takes place so I had the privilege of voting early.
It was actually very exciting to know that I was voting for the next president of the United States, John McCain, and for our first female Vice President, Sarah Palin!
I marked my ballot with pride, sealed it, and sent it away! Voting is such a wonderful opportunity that we have as Americans. I hope all of you out there will make it a priority EVERY election day to vote for your party of choice. Listen to your values and vote based on that and you'll know who to choose.
I do have one observation...where is the get out to vote effort among the McCain people. Look on every web site and Obama has a banner ad encouraging people to vote. I have yet to see McCain's efforts, even in our own county. He needs to be shouting it from the rooftops if he stands a chance against the democratic party and their millions.
One other thing, why is it millions and millions of people will vote for the next American Idol winner but won't go to the polls to vote for something that REALLY REALLY matters? If you're one of those people and you're reading this, I implore you to take up this challenge and head to the election booth on November 4th!
