YES WE CAN. And I Just Did.
I’m not a very political person. I grew up loathing politics in my country of origin. But as a first generation immigrant and a first time voter here in the U.S., this election is very important to me. I followed it since the primaries. I got to know all the candidates. I watched the debates. I read their web sites. I watched the cable news. I investigated the issues on the internet. I’ve constantly read FactCheck.org. I blogged my heart out on political matters.
As a result, I’ve learned a lot of things in U.S. politics that I never paid attention to before. And for the first time in my life I contributed to a political campaign in exchange for a cool car magnet, and a sense of hope that things will be better than the last eight years of failed G.W. Bush policies and politically brain dead Democratic and Republican parties.
I originally planned to vote on November 4 so I could experience using those hi-tech voting machines at the polls, but I opted to vote by mail instead. I might as well vote early, save gas, and beat the long lines on election day. CONTINUE READING >

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And you got 'da mark' to prove it:):)!!!!
I knew that he was our guy with that first huge speach he gave!!!!!!!

There are two paths you go by, well chosen the one you are on.
Thank you, C4!!!
Dude, it's supposed to be a *secret* ballot! Now, if Obama doesn't win, they can use this photo to persecute you, relentlessly!!
In any event, this country is a better place now that you're a voting citizen here. Keep it up!
~Matthew,
in practice, mail-in voting is only weak secrecy. heck, if Bush and Cheney could cast their absentee ballots and brag about it in public then so can i. and i just did :)

Yeah ~C
Nice solid mark! Nothing outside the lines. Don't give them any excuses.
Excellent! But, now I feel like a I'm just following the trend you've set instead of being all 'mavericky!' ;-)
Your first US vote! woohoooooo! wish I could vote there too. :)
Thank you very much, ~C!
THE most important factor about this Presidential Election, despite ALL of the “political claptrap”, IS that this vote IS a VOTE for a sense of hope that things will be better, for everyone of our species on earth and as Matthew has quite rightly said … In any event, this country [world] is a better place now that you're a voting citizen here [anywhere].
Keep it up! indeed
