Those who took the time to register remember early voting start today. How important is this or any election for that matter. One of the principles that this nation was founded on was taxation without representation. Many have died, like Medgar Evers, for you to have the right to vote. He was gunned down on his front porch and died in a pool of blood in front of his wife and children just for registering Blacks to vote. Many others have also died, been beaten and even been jailed for you to have the right to vote in your own country. If you think its not serious. Consider this voter I.D. Law designed to limit the voting, therefore limiting representation, of minorities. It seems as if they are trying to go back to Jim Crow like laws like the Poll Tax that I used to watch my great grandfather pay Poll Taxes in order to vote in the east town of Marshall, although he was born in Hallsville, Texas in 1875 and clearly was an American citizen. If you refuse to vote in this important election. Consider the opposition depend upon you not voting. Be Blessed.
