General Election - Don't Vote for Evil
As I began typing, I realized that the words were a conjecture of everything I read and believe in. Moreover, my ideas are not of my own creation, and I was sure someone had put "Don't vote for evil" more eloquently than I.
I found a very well written plea to anyone that might come across it; it would make a wonderful speech.
"Don’t Vote for Evil
November 3, 2008
About a year and a half ago there was a group of decent and honorable men/women who stepped forward for the opportunity to become President. Since that time the haters in America have told you who to hate and why, the fear mongers have told you who to fear and why, and the worshippers have told you who to worship and the reasons to worship their candidate.
Along the way, the support for each candidate coalesced and then fell away. In some cases, the candidate chose to exit the race for the “good of their party”. In other cases, the skeletons in their closets rattled so loudly that you could not hear the candidate speak. In some cases, candidates were abandoned by their own party in favor of another candidate. In the end there is but one candidate for every party. But there are now over 300 candidates running for President. Of those 300+ there must be at least one that you can honorably vote for in good conscience.
In every election across the country tomorrow, people will choose among four alternatives. People will either vote their political party ticket, or they will choose the best person for the job, or they will vote for the one issue that matters to them the most, or they will vote for the lesser of two evils.
Please don’t vote for evil. Ever. If you believe that voting for the mainstream candidates is choosing between the lesser of two evils, then do not vote for either candidate. Vote for somebody else. Or don’t vote.
I ask that on Tuesday you vote for what you believe is best for America. Vote for the candidate that you believe will guide America into a better tomorrow. If you still do not know who to vote for in the election of 2008 then go HERE and choose one.
Don’t vote for evil, not even the lesser kind.
Vote responsibly and save America."
