Voting is Patriotic (Michigan)

Voting is Patriotic (Michigan) by farlane.
I guess seeing the students at my local school get all fired up about democracy inspired me.

I think that we all need to take a step back from the television, open a voter guide (on or offline) and do what we can to honor the sacrifices that have been made for us on the battlefields and off.

We have been given a great and precious gift. When we choose not to exercise our right to vote, we dishonor that gift.

Please vote, on November 7th and as long as you are able. Your children will thank you for it some day.

The flag photo was taken by Justin Rumao Feel free to borrow or take this image. No credit to me is necessary!!

Thanks Ed. I would listen to the complaints about our government a lot more seriously if our voter participation numbers were more like Costa Rica.

Nice graphic Andrew, i noticed this the other day and wondered how you created it. Graphic aside your message is right on. I'm voting in spite of my disgust with the candidates negative attack ads!
