Thank you Hurricane Sandy! This was the hectic scene at the bus station today :( |
I decided to heed the advice of FLOTUS Michelle Obama today and get out to the polls & vote early. As you know Hurricane Sandy pretty much ravaged New York and snarled our usually fast transportation system. Guys, it took me 5 hours door to door to go vote. On a normal day this would have been an hour long exercise. That sh!t cray!
While I was waiting to cast my vote, I became a bit impatient with the lengthy process associated with casting my ballot. Then slowly but surely images started flooding my head.
|
I began to see images of women that fought tirelessly for my right to vote |
|
Old men that traveled for days and endured dangerous conditions across many miles just to vote |
|
Courageous women that dedicated their lives to the cause |
|
And finally people that died without having the right to vote |
Right there and then it became clear that my 5 hours was nothing! Absolutely trivial. On November 6, it doesn't matter who you go and vote for (
although if you have ANY ounce of common sense you will Obama) vote as if your life depends on it because it just might.
