Question: Do you look ahead when you vote!?
What next

Come November
Will you remember
The power of choice
Strength of your voice

Politicos held high
As one they lie
At the trough feeding
Boldly misleading

Heads of state
Futures fate
Promise not kept
Heirs in debt

All the same
Non with shame
Self servant greed
As citizens bleed

As you cast
Review the past
Last as today
Left us this way

On Voting: It is not enough reason for you to vote for a man because you want to right a wrong!.!.!. it should be because you are of the same ideology!. We should not let the mud others sling drive us to act, we should be self driven by our own conscience!.

I feel Americans often look at solutions as if they were putting band-aids on gunshot wounds!. They believe what they hear because they want to believe it!. They blame others when they are the ones that fail to take charge of their own lives!.!.!. not all!.!.!. but definately most!.!.!. and they d@mn sure want the quick solution not the best!.!.!.!.!. and that's all I've got to say about that!.

!.!.!.and Hydo!.!.!. liked your poemWww@QuestionHome@Com

A timely piece for sure!. I'm going to be glad when this election thing is over!. I keep praying that we choose well this time!. There is no "right" one who can fix the ills!. The damage is too profound!. I should think everybody knows this by now!. We should be casting our vote and giving voice to the candidate we feel will do the country the most good in the next 4 years!.
I'm for minding our own business and taking care of this failing economy!. We're hurting here at home know what I mean!. Anyway, like your poem very much, nicely said indeed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have no more solemn duty and privilege than to vote!. I have ancestors who died in the Revolutionary War, and my great, great grandfather was a Civil War veteran!. I can count 2 signers of the Declaration of Independence as direct ancestors!. Stand up and be counted, we could too easily have the right to vote disappear!. Register and vote!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, "Plan but do not plan the out come!."

We live in wreckage of the past, and now mass confusion on who to
vote for! For the most they have changed what worked for America!
to begin with "Industry" was our strength!. and as for me, down with
Wal-Mart, My pennies are never spent there!. Too much to say, End!.

Kudos to your poem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I always try to look ahead and expect the future to be better than the past!. I suppose that is hope!. Enjoy the present, forget the past, hope for the future!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
