October 20th~ Voters Registration
Guys!!
I can’t stress enough the importance of registering to vote and making sure that those registered actually vote. Please pass along the the deadline date, which is October 20, 2008. All voters must be registered by October 20, 2008 in order to vote in the general election on November 4, 2008!! Once you have helped someone register to vote, please make sure that they understand the voting process, the policies and that they have a way to get to their polling place. The Democratic vote has never been so important! We have got to turn the economy and the nation around or we will self destruct as a nation and as a people!
Pride
Today is the second day of the DNC which was started off so beautifully full of change, pride and unity. Our female speaker of the house started it off breathing new life to the DNC, followed by our beloved Ted Kennedy and then our new First Lady Michelle Obama. I missed Ted Kennedy’s speech live, but went online and watched it. I really don’t know what this feeling is that I am feeling on this changing of the guard from the old freedom fighters to the new freedom changers. We are here at this bridge where it is time for us to take a stand. The peace makers and activists from the 30’s 40’s and 60’s paved the way for us… now we have our own leader and we have to stand behind him and help him help us! It’s our time! Take responsibility! Take action and invest in your future! Get involved with your own life and the community!! Take a stand! Be the change you want to see!
