Well, it’s finally the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, so you know what that means… It’s Election Day! For most Americans, Election Day is nothing to get excited about, but this year is certainly different. I don’t know if those who are reading this, but this election is quite probably one of the most important elections in recent history. The outcome of this election will affect a war (whether you feel it’s unjust or not), our position in the global community (there is one, by the way… it’s NOT just the United States plodding along by itself–history teaches us that), the very nature of separation of church and state (gay marriage), 1st Amendment rights in the form of some of the various acts up for renewal, acts passed and, what I feel the most important issue of all, Supreme Court Justice selection. Yes, the next President will probably have to select a new Supreme Court Justice, and being that the Court is essentially divided evenly now, the next political background of the next Justice will have major ramifications for the future of the country and the world.

So, go vote right now.
