After watching the debate....
I recently added myself to the mailing list of factcheck.org. With all the misleading "facts" being told by both parties, I wanted to try and find out exactly what each candidate stands for. I hope you all watched the debate last night and will continue to educate yourselves on each candidate. I really believe we have elected officials in the past based on what we "assume" they will do based on their party lines AND on lies that they tell while campaigning. Please, please try and take the time to educate yourselves before you go in the voting booth. Our country is obviously in a crisis. I do believe God will take care of us, but I also believe He wants us to be active and not passive in this election. For most republicans, the main issue seems to be abortion. For most democrats, the main issue seems to be taxes. Personally, I feel like we need to take in consideration ALL of the issues, and then pray, pray, pray that God will lead us to the right decision. Don't make your decisions out of fear...... panic is never a solution. Now, let's all take a deep breath, listen to our candidates with an open-heart and prayerful mind.... and then on Nov. 4th.... VOTE!!!

Marcia! I found you through your MySpace link!
ReplyDeleteAmen, sister. I am alarmed at the division and anger between parties, but even more alarmed at the "spin" put on the issues. I'm with you - educate ourselves, and then pray, pray, pray!
I love being able to keep up with you through your entries! Big hug to you, friend.
