We Can Be Heroes

This Tuesday we all have a unique opportunity.
Each and everyone can become heroes.
Just for one day.
It may indeed be the most important day in this country’s history. I’m sure you are all aware what is at stake this November 7th. If you’re political aware that is. The sad fact is that most of America is not. Most Americans aren’t even aware that habeas corpus was suspended. Most don’t even know what it means. This scares the hell out of me. Most Americans don’t realize the damage this administration has done, the full extent. This scares the hell out of me. These people are often referred to as “sheeple”. Some are so caught up in day to day survival; they don’t have the time or will to learn. Some bought the fear card hook, line and sinker. Some just don’t have the mental capacity to grasp it.
So what do we, the informed ones, do? Knowledge is power, and with power comes responsibility. It is our duty to take this country back from this nightmarish scenario. We must help the blind cross the street. We must teach the uninformed and the ill-informed.
We must take this country back. We must vote. We must encourage others to vote. Almost half this country does not vote. This is inexcusable.
So don’t let Diebold scare you. Don’t let inclement weather deter you. Don’t let shills at your voting spot confuse you. And believe me they will try.
And if they dare steal this one, we must all scream so loudly that if deafens the entire country. I won’t take it this time. You won’t take it this time.
We will be heroes, damn it. Just for one day.
