On Voting

The problem has less to do with the activity and history of potential U.S. presidential candidates, and more to do with the inactivity of our citizens to communicate, encourage, and demand actions, decisions, and results from our daily representative governments - from city councils and state legislatures up to the inert, unwilling, and party-divided House of Representatives and Senate. We will have a successfully working democracy when we engage in a regularly practicing representative government. It's more than just voting - it is acting.

Enough with the muckraking and mudslinging, the slandering and pandering, and for your country, for your beliefs, for your families - do something.

"In  1965,  in  a  speech  at  Dinkier  Plaza  Hotel  in  Atlanta,  Georgia,    Dr.  King  said,  "History will  have to  record  the  greatest  tragedy of  this  period  of  social  transition  was  not the  vitriolic  words  and other  violent  actions  of  the  bad  people  but  the  appalling  silence  and  indifference  of the  good people.  Our  generation  will  have  to  repent  not  only  the  words  and  acts  of  the  children  of darkness but also for the fears and apathy of the children of light.”
