If you live in the USA, and don't live under a rock, you know it's election year!
I'm super patriotic and love my country. I love that we have the freedom to choose our leaders, even if sometimes our country goes temporarily insane when choosing! I'm not going to go into who I think should win or why you should vote for a certain party. I'm not up for that debate today, although I do love a good political debate. I just wanted to make a point, then I'll jump off my soapbox.
Please, please, please be informed when you head to vote. I was having a conversation with someone the other day and they were so uninformed about the candidates that it was pretty pathetic. Here in Oklahoma, our primary was a couple of days ago and this person was headed to vote armed with almost no information about anyone that was on the ballot. I was told "I'll just decide when I get there!"
WHAT?!?!?!? Nooooooooooooooooo!!!
I know most of my readers are female, so let me just say.... Ladies, don't do this! Do you want to live the next 4 years with a horrible president? I don't. Do you want to see our country go further downhill? I don't. Do you really want to be the gal who votes for Marco Rubio because he's a hottie? I don't.
Mr. Rubio in action! |
Isn't he the cutest? My hubby thinks he has big ears and looks like a little boy but I think he's a cutie patootie! Why not have a hot president?
Because that's not their job!!! They must run our country and if they're hideously ugly, but well qualified, we must vote for them. If I go to my polling place and choose Rubio because he's the cutest, I should lose my right to vote! I know I'm being silly now, but I am very passionate about this. Do your family, your country and yourself a favor - study before you vote. Make your vote count by being informed. Don't choose based on what's popular, who's cutest or what your friends tell you!
Geez, I sound like a public service announcement. That means it's time to shut up. That was my two cents for the day.
One more, just because...
Have a great Thursday!
Cheryl
