When you are denied this right, you are ruled by
unscrupulous men, as they are the ones willing to fight their way to
a position of leadership and power, usually with much bloodshed and
a total lack of regard for human life, let alone the living
conditions of the people in the region.
Our soldiers have defended our freedoms for 200 years
on domestic and foreign soil. Many have given their lives to
ensure that America remains a free country, for their families,
friends and the generations who will follow.
We can't let apathy rob us of our voice in our
governing bodies. Failure to use your right to vote says that
you don't think that you should have any say in who governs you.
When you accept this responsibility, you take an
active role in determining the leadership for your city, state and
country.
It is important to learn about the candidates in
every election, to decide who you feel is the best candidate and go
to the polls to cast your vote for that person. If enough
people vote for a good candidate, that candidate has the opportunity
to lead and to make sound decisions that affect you and your
family, your city or state, your quality of life, financial issues,
healthcare, taxes, roads, power.
Failure to exercise your right to vote, however, has
the opposite effect. It sets the stage for ruthless, greedy,
dishonest people to win the elections by payoffs, empty campaign
promises and other ruthless measures.
