Vote

Vote Voting After the September 11 attacks on our nation we have had an abundance of national pride. We hang our flags, proudly sing our anthem, and we all go out and register to vote; right' No we don’t, which is shameful since voting is the most American thing you could possibly do. Countries such as Cuba, Iraq, and Afghanistan are denied this right we so casually discard. Voting has a long history in our country, and should not be taken lightly. People like Bob Moses and Martin Luther King fought for the rights of African Americans to vote freely without discrimination. Bob Moses was attacked and beaten for his efforts to vote. Women like Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Motts Began the fight for women’s rights to vote in 1848 and continued to do so for more than 70 years. These Americans fought an arduous and in most cases dangerous battle, all for the right to vote, and now their efforts are wasted on an apathetic nation. In the last two presidential elections less than half of register voters made their way out to the ballot box.
