Freedom to Vote!

As we come upon a new election I don't want to express who I am voting for. I really don't want a debate or any negative comments. All I want to say is that I am so grateful that we live in a country that we have the freedom to vote as we choose. Recently, I read a blog where this person was tearing her neighbors down for voting as they choose. I was really sad to see her make them feel inferior for using there right to vote . I have never believed that this was how our country was meant to be. And still don't.
All I want to say is that I am proud of our country for coming so far.... I never would have thought that we would have an African American running for President or a Woman running for Vice president let alone a Mormon in the beginning of the races.
I hope everyone does vote however they want and realizes what a blessing it is to have that freedom in our lives. I also hope we don't resort to mean and negative comments when voicing our choice. Treating our neighbors with respect as they make there choice this election is another way to set us apart from other countries. God bless America!
