Vote Today For Real CHANGE

Posted on Nov 7, 2008 8:29 PM

The time is now, we have gone past midnight.

Across all of the United States of America, voting has begun for the 44th President.

As a Canadian I don't have to care, but I do. Just as I care for my next door neighbours, I care for America too. When I see my neighbour sad, I feel sad, but when I see them happy I feel happy.

I want to see that America I once loved during the 90's. President Bill Clinton was commander and chief and riding high with an economical surplus. Times were good.

With all the hits Barack Obama has taken from media, John McCain, and Sarah Palin, he has shown the strong will needed in order to survive in the oval office. After all, it's not about how hard you can hit, but rather how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward without any deviations.

There's no question that Barack Obama has taken the hits from every corner, and while none of them have been warranted, none of them have affected him either. He's stayed true to his word.

As a Canadian I unfortunately do not have the privilege of voting. What I can do though is impact your vote and I feel as if I have done so. Many Republicans have taken their time to email me and thank me for the insight I have opened them up to. As a result they will now be voting for Barack Obama.

Obama has been there with the middle-class of America right from the get-go. He's lost both parents and he's suffered through financial pain. He knows what it's like to be hampered with health care payments. His mom was even being bombarded with insurance bureaucracies while she was on her deathbed with cancer.

Americans suffer through those same pains everyday and as President, Barack Obama looks to eliminate as much of those pains as possible by lowering taxation for 95% of Americans. So if you're making less than a quarter of a million dollars, then you will see your taxes reduced. Big corporations and the upper-class can once again see their taxes due in the same amount as they were in President Bill Clinton's term.

I'll retort to my earlier comment in the fact that when I see my neighbour unhappy, I feel unhappy because it's an atmosphere around me that begs for help. Big corporations and the upper-class of America should share those same feelings.

Vote Barack Obama for President and Joe Biden for Vice President once your polls open.

If instead you choose to vote for John McCain and Sarah Palin, then do not complain when your country is not on its way to financial surplus. As a result, your country would once again be viewed in the light of President George W. Bush. If that becomes the case, then you ‘my friends' are cowards because you know you voted for the Republicans and missed the opportunity for REAL CHANGE.

If you know your role, then Democratic Barack Obama is your vote. Your role is to uphold the American Dream once again, as it was in the 90's. The time for talking is no longer needed. The time to vote is now.

I bid you good luck with the fulfillment of "CHANGE" in the most important Presidential Election in the history of the United States of America.

Hi Marcuscygy! I love your country. Thanks so much for your beautiful post. Your country sounds so peaceful and beautiful. You have a Canadian model Gabriel Aubrey who is the father of Halle Berry's baby daughter. I was born in Chicago, Illinois.
