WHAT’S IT GONNA TAKE?!!
What’s it gonna take for all of us voting-age citizens to realize that each of our votes can out-vote any of the big-money mega-dollars poured into the voting system?!  Feet on the ground really can outvote money in the air (waves of TV).  All that mega-money is doing is trying to make us believe that money can vote too.  It can’t.  Corporations can’t.  Only you and I can vote.

If  you want your life to be better, you have to register and vote.  And vote for the issues, not the idealogy.  We have religions that see to the idealogy.  Church really is separate from state in our country.  People don’t have to be ordained ministers/spiritual leaders to be elected to government offices….and probably very few elected officials are ministers. If you want your spiritual life to be better, go to church/synagogue/temple/etc. If you want more access to jobs, better roads, better schools, better water and air quality, etc., then that is within the jurisdiction of government.

Look at the political party which has repeatedly worked to improve your life circumstances at the town, county and state levels right now.  Vote for the members of that party who are up for election, right now.  In the case of judge-ships, it’s even more important to vote in this May’s elections!  Vote for one who is honest, not corruptible.  If you let pretty pamphlets and TV talkers decide for you, you’ll only get confused or be misled by “sound bites.”  Sound bites never reveal the whole story.

If you want more information, contact your chosen party by phone, website or at its headquarters.  They’ll be delighted to help you.

If everyone of voting age voted in the spring primaries, autumn off-year elections and presidential elections, this country would be a true democracy.  It would have an economy that works for everyone.
