First, I want to say "thanks" to all who read this for voting - really - it is one of the few things that validates and reaffirms the reasons behind what I do for a living; Our presidential elections are the second I've been thru in the past 30 days; remember that the reason I had to go back to Afghanistan was to help secure the Afghanis elections, the 1st ever held here in the 3000+ year history of this country, and give the people here their "own voice," something we've enjoyed for quite a long time

Its not a perfect process, and in some cases the candidate selection process boils down to the "lesser of two evils,"
but there it is....

Thanks
