use your voice.

I am not a very political person...but I do care about certain issues and have to admit that I am a bit freaked out by everything that is going on right now.  I feel more compelled to vote this year than I ever have before.  I am not going to make this about any particular candidates, that's not what my blog is for.  But I will say this...no matter who you choose to support...VOTE.  Get out there and VOTE.  It's so important and this election will affect every single piece of our lives. When we were at The Swell Season concert a couple weeks ago, the lead singer, who is Irish, said something that made me think.  He said, "Being European, I have a different perspective on this whole election thing.  All I am gonna say is....vote.  The things that happen in America affect everyone in the entire world."  It's true.  The ENTIRE world.   So, there you go.  That's all I am going to say about it.  Use your voice on November 4th.  The whole world is counting on us.

I want to share this Declare Yourself video...I am sure you've seen it on many other blogs...but for the one or two of you that havn't, please watch it now...it's good.  :)
