Don’t Be Stupid. Vote.
I’m not going to tell you who to vote for. Frankly, you shouldn’t be looking for political advice on a gaming blog.
But this is an important election, one that will directly shape the future of the next decade. Issues will be decided in the coming years that will affect America’s economic and strategic place in the world. This is big stuff.
It falls upon all of us to exercise our right and make informed decisions in the upcoming election. That means looking beyond who has the smoothest soundbites or who does the more convincing job of slamming his opponent and focusing on which candidate you believe will best lead us to a prosperous future.
One great thing about the presidential race is that, unlike some recent elections, I think both candidates are good men who sincerely care about their country and its people. They differ greatly on how they think we should go about fixing what is broken, but neither is completely right nor completely wrong; if that were the case, there wouldn’t be so many intelligent people on both sides of the political aisle.
Don’t leave decisions like this in someone else’s hands. Too many good people have fought and died to give us the opportunity that so many take for granted on election day. Don’t be one of those sad statistics. Invest the effort into examining the issues and taking a hard look at where you stand. Your voice only counts if you use it.
Don’t be stupid. Vote.
Ya i agree go out and Vote, its important!
Being involved in politics and having a job that is tied directly to how people vote every four years, I can’t agree with you more. However, I go a step further. Getting out and voting is the first step. Holding your politicians accountable, whether you supported them in an election or not, is just as important. The state of our nation doesn’t stop when you leave the voting booth.
Ill be voting for……….. and I will be voting for him because ……….
