Here is my story..... sorry if it's long and a bit rambling. Many people today don't feel like their vote has any impact. Those who are not old enough to vote feel that they can not make any difference. When I was a teenager my family would get together before an election .... any election - city, county, state or a national election. My dad would discuss the candidates, what they wanted to do to improve upon the current situation and we would then have a discussion. There would be a family vote and who ever won that vote was the person or issue that my dad would vote for. I wanted to be able to vote and express my opinion. When the voting age changed from 21 to 18, I was ecstatic! I have voted in every presidential election and city/state election since. I have also been an election judge. This is a special right that all Americans have and it should be used! As for those who say that they are not of age to vote, they can contact the senators, congressmen and Representatives in their district. There is no age limit on that! When my daughter turned 18, one of the birthday gifts that I gave her was a voter registration form. Parents should encourage discussion of events with their children and should also set a good example. Get away from the Hollywood drama for a few minutes and see what is going on in your world. I have seen local elections decided by only a few votes. One vote can make a difference!

The only people that do are mentally deficient without a life, and nothing to gossip about locally.

We're so bored with our own lives, we pay attention to those with fame who are ruining their lives.
