If you’re like me, and have been rather apathetic towards voting (I haven’t voted in the last 22 years of my so far 44 year life span – i have my reasons), maybe this article (and included video) may help you along towards your decision to vote.  It didn’t change my mind, but reminded me that;

change has to come from within

to simply sit back and complain, protest or ignore problems will not effect change.  Changing the system from within is the only way.  Take a look at the candidates.  Find someone you believe can make the change, and hold them to it.  Don’t let them off the hook.  In this and every election you participate in from this point forward.  – Robert Nolan
