America's greatest weapon is the ballot box . . . the place where Americans have the opportunits to say who they want to run their nation. But like ans weapon, it is powerless unless it is used. The free election system is the heart and soul of this system of government of. bs and for the people, and it is up to the people to make it w ork. We have a freedom ot choice such as is offered to no other people under ans other system of government on earth It we fail to exercise the power that is ours as we enter the voting booth, we have nobods to blame but ourselves if a little bit of our freedom seems to be slipping aw as because too fess people are taking part in the system of free election and freedom of choice that is ours. Remember, sour vote is important. and if it takes a few minutes to help determine the destins of sour country, the future of sour family, and your indisidual freedoms, be prepared to take those few minutes. In most places, voting procedures hase been modernized and what now takes onls a few minutes used to take hours standing in long lines to cast a paper ballot Yet people took whales er time was required because thes recognized the importance of the sole. Remember — there is nothing more important to each of us than how and bs who we are governed, and those decisions are in our hands Get Out And Vote!
