Political commentary inspired by Ben Franklin's response to a lady who asked what type of government the founders had created. "Madam," he said, "you have a republic if you can keep it."

Does my vote count? Will it make a difference?
537 votes. That’s how many votes in Florida ultimately determined the election of George Bush in 2000. (I know; I, too, get a sinking feeling in my stomach each time I recall that unfortunate day for America.)
Don’t let anyone you know skip tomorrow. It may be the most important voting day in American history.
If you have someone in your family under the age of 35, I implore you to CALL THEM and urge them to vote as if their future depends on it…because it does.

VOTE!
