My first experience with politics was during a debate I attended in Wilmington, Delaware during my senior year of high school. Before the days of attack ads, candidates often met in public forums, hosted by local churches to give citizens a chance to see what each individual stood for and was against. Since this site was where I went to youth group, I was a curious onlooker, sitting back and absorbing the 3 nominees.
Looking back, the most impressive individual in my eyes was a pro-life democrat. Since the incumbent was a Rhino Republican with all the experience and money, my guy never had a chance. Unfortunately, pro-life democrats at the national level have become extinct. In fact, the Progressive Movement has swallowed up the entire Democrat Party with eyes on engulfing the Republican Party as well. As Independents sell their votes to the highest bidder, its easy to become a disenfranchised voter.
However, as Election Day 2014 arrives on Tuesday, don’t waste your vote. While you might have voted your party line, cast your ballet for who your peers suggested or bet on the person who promised you the most, make your vote count this year. Listen to the 4 men in the you tube attached as each have experienced a defining moment. In view of potential fraud, a biased media and illegal votes already cast in several states, make the most of your privilege to select the future leaders in America.
