Yes We Did!

From our President-Elect
To Me! :)
Lesley --
I'm about to head to Grant Park to talk to everyone gathered there, but I wanted to write to you first.
We just made history.
And I don't want you to forget how we did it.
You made history every single day during this campaign -- every day you knocked on doors, made a donation, or talked to your family, friends, and neighbors about why you believe it's time for change.
I want to thank all of you who gave your time, talent, and passion to this campaign.
We have a lot of work to do to get our country back on track, and I'll be in touch soon about what comes next.
But I want to be very clear about one thing...
All of this happened because of you.
Thank you,
Barack

VOTE!
I was going to post this on Tuesday, but with all the early voting, I decided to put it out there tonight.

Bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.
- Andrew Lack
Constantly choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.
- Jerry Garcia
Half of the American people never read a newspaper.
Half never voted for President.
One hopes it is the same half.
- Gore Vidal
The best argument against democracy
is a five minute conversation with the average voter.
- Winston Churchill
Democracy is the recurrent suspicion
that more than half of the people are right
more than half of the time.
- A.E. Smith
It's not the voting that's democracy;
it's the counting.
- Tom Stoppard
Those who stay away from the election
think that one vote will do no good:
'Tis but one step more to think one vote will do no harm.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
