nervous ramble / soapbox
All this time, I've been assuming America knows what's good for it this time around. I've been assuming Obama will win, hands down.
It's starting to dawn on me that that might not happen.
I'm a little nervous.
Actually, I'm a lot nervous.
Now that I'm an 'adult' and directly affected....it's a lot realer than any of the past elections that were out of our hands.
Goodness, I don't know what we'll do.
Think about it. Despite your political standing, imagine whoever you want to win. Imagine if you don't vote. Now, imagine if they lose by a single vote.
Kind of on your shoulders, huh?
The deadline's creeping up.
Please, don't give into the apathy that has come to be expected of our generation.
You've been given a voice.
Why wouldn't you use it?
