Dear friends of WWJDD,
This message could be one word long; VOTE! That's my main message. But a bit deeper lies what you're voting for or against. Someday when we meet in some night club we'll discuss this at length but right now I urge you to go to the media, websites, internet blogs, friends & family to get the facts, however fluid they may be. You're smart & can separate the lies from the truth (also fluid) & I'm sure you will vote for the right guy . . . no, not the one who suspends his campaign every time there's a dip in his poll numbers or some crisis he must attend (not really his job), uses falsehoods in adverts or agrees w/ 90% of Pres GWB's policies. Please VOTE & vote for someone who can restore our FAITH & HOPE in this country. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT AS A CITIZEN & VOTE! THIS MORE IMPORTANT NOW THAN EVER.
Thanks for allowing me a little soap box time & for your support. Below is a list of the different state's voter registration deadlines.
yours in solidarity,
John Doe
