I’ve met more people in the last few weeks who don’t care about the election than people who do. I just can’t imagine how anyone, regardless of their age, could not care about the person who will be leading our country for the next four, maybe even eight years. If not for you what about your kids or grandkids?
It concerns me- the lack of interest with many people for this election. Now if you ask people who they like, Obama or McCain, they won’t hesitate in telling you their disdain for one of the two, but ask them to vote? How dare you! I agree, if you don’t have an opinion then don’t vote, I just don’t understand not having an opinion (an education opinion).
Faith has been a vital part of discussion the past few months, both Obama’s and McCain’s faith. Many people have said that faith should be left out of political conversation, but I’d have to disagree. Faith plays (or should play) a vital part in one’s life. Every decision they make, big or small, will be based on their faith. Why wouldn’t we want to know what our future President’s faith is like? It doesn’t matter if it’s your faith or not, you have to know.If you feel a little behind on the whole Obama vs. McCain agenda, ask yourself this, what are the most important values I want to see our president have? Then, find a credible source (not the media, but a credible source) and find out what each candidate believes or doesn’t believe. Don’t be ignorant; it’s not pretty.
