Do you care about this 4 letter word? VOTE
Aloha,
One of the hot topics this year is politics. We have a presidential election, senatorial elections, and local state elections for various positions such as Honolulu Major. Regardless if you are on the right, the left, or the middle. Everyone has an opnion. Many may feel dissolusioned and simply don’t care for it. If you are a citizen and over 18 years of age, you should care, because you are a vote. Being a veteran that vote to me means the freedom that me and my fellow comrades fight and die for. That vote represents something bigger than any political party or issue.
Take the time to engage in the process and learn about the many challenges facing our nation such as job creation, debt, security, education, social programs, and the environment to name a few. We can each be a part of the solution. These problems didn’t create themselves and they certainly can’t solve themselves, so its up to us to bring about the results we want.
Its going to take hard work, time, money, and patience. At the end of th day its up to us for our children and the future of our great nation. In Hawaii there are several candidates running for the senate. They are all great candidates who care about these issues and the well being of the state. One candidate that stands out in my opinion is former Governor Linda Lingle. She has a clear and honest vision of what steps are needed to move us forward.
Her campaign focuses on addressing the real issues all citizens are concerned about and they are the economy, jobs, reducing regulations, immigration, tourism, education, and national security. I know most Hawaii and US citizens care about these issues. Before you decide on the left, the right, the middle or if you don’t have an opinion. Get involved in the democratic process. Make your voice and your vote count.
P.S.
