   I'd like to share with you some of my personal opinions on this coming Presidential Election. I've listed some of the categories below. You may not agree with me but read them anyway. However as I said these are my thoughts, so if you feel differently, please check my facts for yourselves, then take the time to reason through what I said & make your own decision. This is one of the most important elections in our life time. Make sure you get informed then, for everybody who has given, or is going to give, their life for our country, VOTE: You owe them that much.    Al 
   I'd like to remind you to watch your local & state politicians also. Check out what they say, make sure they are telling you the truth. If they are willing to mislead you, then for your own protection vote them out of office. I bring this up because I've seen so many politicians recently taking things out of context to help their political positions or their parties. If they will mislead you on anything they'll mislead you whenever it is to their benefit. Keep your eyes open and check the facts. Use common sense.

From Kennedy to Bush how I felt.
 
   I can't believe it! I heard, last night 8/6/04, on CNN that they took a poll to see how many people were still undecided. The result was that 96% of the people polled had already made up their minds who they were voting for. Have we become so complacent that we won't even bother to research the facts before we decide who we want to lead our country during these extremely dangerous times? Think about it, we haven't even seen the Presidential Debates & a lot of things could happen between now & the election. It seems that most American's today just sit in front of the "Boob Tube" watch their soap operas or real TV shows & form their political opinions by watching the political ads. I personally wouldn't buy a used car from some of the people I see on these ads. Honesty isn't their strong suit.
If we want a first world country for our children we had better start to care.
