Watch 4 min video: "President Obama Doesn't Have Time For These 7 Excuses Not To Vote" |
Why Vote?
These quotes say it all:
-------------------
"You can either vote by voting or vote by not voting. If you don't vote, someone else's vote counts more. IT'S MATH." - Occupy Pragmatism
-------------------
"Bad politicians are sent to Washington by good people who don't vote." - William E. Simon
-------------------
"If American women would increase their voting turnout by 10 percent, I think we would see an end to all of the budget cuts in programs benefiting women and children." - Coretta Scott King
-------------------
"The vote is the most powerful instrument ever devised by man for breaking down injustice and destroying the terrible walls which imprison men because they are different from other men." - Lyndon B. Johnson
-------------------
And then there's my favorite thing to say to my non-voting relatives or friends when they whine about their elected officials: "Did you vote? No? Then you clearly have no right to complain!"
