General Election Day 2008!!!

Do you ever stop and take a moment to think about what it would be like to live in another country? Well I don't, at least not often. About once every four years come Election Day. When you walk into your polling place to cast your vote for the next President of the United States of America. Where your voice is heard, and matters on who will be the next President to lead our country. Then I take a moment, and say to myself man I am so lucky to be an American. Think about every other country there is. What they have to live with and there country rules are much different then ours. We have so much freedom here in America. But yet life goes on and changes are made to better our country and thousands of people disagree with the choices that are made.
This morning I got up at 7:00am. Spent some time looking over my sample ballot for the state of Nevada (swing state). I filled it out and went to my polling place to cast my vote at around 8:00am. Mind you I have never gone out to vote first thing in the morning. But this Election is very important to me. Let me tell you it felt great to be out there in the windy brisk morning standing in line with a bunch of other people in there business attire. waiting so patiently to put there vote in.
For the past three months I have been undecided on who I was rooting for. So last night when I came to a conclusion. I was 100% sure on who I believed in, would be the next greatest candidate to lead our country and keep us from harms way. I am proud to say I voted for,
John McCain for President, and
Sarah Palin for Vice President.

Way to go, brother! If McCain takes Nevada, you get all the credit for the deciding vote.
