Debates

I'm watching the VP Debates. I don't know much about politics but that never stopped me from having an opinion. A friend of mine told me tonight that he finds it very disturbing that many people will vote based on things such as the color of skin, or "I just like him/her". What ever the reason most people spend more time researching a car they are about to purchase than they do researching a candidate that they are about to vote for. I too find this disturbing. I think you owe it to yourself to research the candidate before ever stepping into a both to vote for him. Do not take anything you hear in the media as fact. I have found that many of them are one sided. You really should get online, open a news paper or ask people who are knowledgeable about the "FACTS" before you decide who you are voting for. I have always been a republican and for the most part have always voted that way. But if I feel that a democrat is more qualified to do the job I will vote for him or her. I hope that everyone gets out to vote this year. And please don't just vote democrat or republican because thats the party your parents always voted for or your spouse votes that way. Spend a little time and do some research and even pray for God to help you make the right decision.

Blessings till I post again.
