If you look at the three major issues you hear about now, the economy, energy, and foreign policy, none of these are quick fixes that one piece of legislation will take care of. These are issues that will take years, maybe 10 or more, to fully stabilize. Which means, even if you don't think these issues directly relate to you now, they will. The direction we head in now, will dictate the situation we are in 10 or 15 years from now, when we will be faced with the 'major problems' for our generation, and when we will be in the position to call the shots. We have had an unexpected advantage in our decisions, because we have lived through the past 8 years, and we now get to see the effects of unchecked failed policy. Now imagine if we continue the same failed policies for another 4 years. Look at Sen. McCain's policy proposals for these three issues, then check health care and education, and see for yourself there is no change. When people talk about what they will leave for the future, we are that future! We are the next leaders of this country, and our future can not afford continuing on this path. So please, even if this doesn't matter to you now, get out and vote for Sen. Obama on November 4th, and let our country know we want better for our future.
Let our country know we want a change! Obama/Biden '08
