Leadership and Politics

Hi Everyone,
I hope you are all enjoying the warmer weather on this lazy Sunday afternoon. (Did you all remember to set your clocks forward today for Daylight Savings Time?)

Anyway, I just wanted to make a quick post about Leadership and Politics. Like them or not, in the United States, our elected politicians are our leaders. By default that makes each and every one of us their followers. But we have the choice to vote for and elect our own leaders! And that is why as responsible citizens and followers, we must take the time to understand these people who we are electing to be our leaders.

So I know the next Presidential election is over a year away, but if you've seen anything on the news, you've probably heard about the race thats ramping up already. Therefore, all I can say is GET INFORMED AND GET INVOLVED!

A friend of mine has created a website VoteIssues08, and he promises to help organize the promises / platforms of all of the candidates, as well as to let people "vote" (American Idol style) for their favorite candidates and on issues important to them. So check it out!
