I don’t usually chat about politics
But this video really got under my skin. I have not talked about my particular vote in this election or who I believe or don’t believe. I post little random tidbits because quite frankly I feel everyone should be allowed to vote for who they think would do the best job possible.

I feel very strongly that if we don’t learn from the past

That's tightened considerably since the group's September survey had Obama down six points, 48-42. Sue Sekel, a 43
