    Wake Up

    To the voters of Texas, Ohio, Vermont and Rhode Island: Please vote for Hillary tomorrow. Make sure everybody you know gets to the polls bright and early. The prospect of an inexperienced, unqualified President at the helm of our country when we are on the verge of a recession and in the middle of two wars, is unnerving at best and frightening at most. And that's if he wins. Can we assume the rest of the country will throw caution to the wind like Democratic primary voters? Will we end up with McCain?

    So many people have thrown critical thinking out the window and are not really voting for a President, but for a symbol. They think this vote makes them hip, cool, and progressive. Never mind that his meager voting record is anything but progressive. I can understand why young people would fall for this, but older people should know better.
