Silence is the voice of complicity.

Every American (over 18) has been given this amazing freedom to express their opinion and VOTE. Every one of us has this beautiful gift, the chance to be heard and make a difference in our world. We might not always see the change right away but unlike so many places, there is a chance to make a change. We have the right and privilege and most of all, duty to vote. Voting doesn't just make a change in our country but it shows other counties how change happens and the results of freedom of expression. When we don't vote we're saying so many things about who we are as people and as a nation. We're taking for granted our freedom that so many people in this world don't have. We're throwing away this golden chance to be counted. When you say your vote doesn't count you couldn't be more wrong. It's all that counts.
So if you haven't voted yet, make sure you do. And if you don't know the issues or who to vote for, do some research. Or pick the one thing that's most important to YOU and vote with whomever agrees. But always remember that silence is the voice of complicity, if we we don't speak up then we should remember to shut up when things don't go they want we wanted.
