Super Tuesday

Today is Tuesday February 5, 2008 or what is known as Super Tuesday.

Super Tuesday comes around once every four years and in most cases, Super Tuesday determines both Democratic and Republican Presidential Nominees.

I was amazed by how many commercials were played during the Super Bowl pre-game shows urging people to get out and vote or stop complaining.

It's a concept I have believed in for as long as I can remember.

Whether you are a Democrat, Republican, or Independent you should go out and vote today.

If you are not a Primaries voter then make sure to vote in November.

There is a majority out there that says "Why should I vote, it doesn't count", "It's just the Popular Vote" or "I'm just one vote". Both of the these arguments, in essence both statements are true due mainly in part to the Electoral College.

Here is a link to a great article on "How does the Electoral College work?" which can be found at howstuffworks.com.

In my opinion, if you really want to make a difference, then you should go out and vote when seats are up for election in your Local (ie: Mayor), State (ie: Governor), or Federal Districts (ie: Senator).

This is where you can make the most of your vote and really make a change.

My issue is that so many people complain about the "system" yet they don't go out and vote. I have no issue listening to what a person has to say about President Bush or anything else political as long as they went out and voted. I don't care who they voted for, as long as they voted.

The way I see it: Vote or shut up!!!
