G'mornin Ada,

Yep, you got me on a soapbox, that's for sure

First we as Americans let them take prayer outa school, now we are allowing them to take affection out, before ya know it we will all be walking zombies dressed alike in a never ending line.

People in America truly need to wake up and vote and make changes, it will never happen until everyone does this. Not half, not a 1/3...but all.

I have taken my kids with me to vote since they were old enough to walk, and when they could reach the buttons I let them push for me. I have them watching debates with me, going to the local party headquarters. You name it. I have taught them this is their birth right, to vote and to make changes. They in return have talked to their friends etc...and have gotten some of them to register.

I think it should be like the boys who must register with civil service, that everyone upon their 18th birthday must register to vote.

We need to teach these kids how very important it is to vote. Instead of sitting back, not registered ourselves and complaing about everything.

My oldest daughter turns 18 on Jan. 12, 2008. She is beyond excited that she finally gets to go vote herself! Her application is filled out, stamped and layin by the front door, on her birthday she said she was taking it to the post office to mail herself. (I am more than proud of her for taking this step herself)

The color issue, is just ignorance. People really need to get over stuff, we are all citizens of the usa...what color we are, or aren't should not matter. We should all stand strong together instead of being so petty over stupid stuff.

Only in America....
