VOTE Continued from Al
cannot run again—Vice President AI.Gore and Texas Gov. George W. Bush are running to replace him. In some states there are spirited governors’ races and other local elections too. Each of them—the representatives and the wanna-be representatives, the incumbent senators and the wanna-be senators, the hopeful governors and their opponents and. the two candidates for president know how important voting is. Some of them are all hoping that you do too. But some of them are hoping that a low political IQ means a low voter turnout, or that votes will be cast without the voter thinking about what is at stake. Once every two years in the United States’ political system, you beebme the important person. Not only do you have the chance to decide who wins or loses these elections, but also by making that choice, you get to decide what kinds of policies will govern you and your fellow Americans for the immediate future. You know what they are. Some candidates hope that you don’t. Some of them are hoping your political IQ is as low as it can be and that you don’t know the difference between Candidate A and Candidate B. And some of them are hoping that you won’t vote. Can you answer these questions? In AIDS prevention, does one candidate have a plan and program while the other has none and says even less? In helping you pay for increas-
ingly expensive prescription drugs, does one candidate want private profit-making insurance companies to do it while the other believes helping you should be a Medicare benefit? In supporting public schools where almost all American children are educated, does one candidate want money for new construction and repair, and for raising teachers’ salaries while the other won’t raise teachers’ pay and won’t repair or build new schools? And does one support affirmative action, giving all Americans a chance, while another wants to roll back the clock to the days when racial prejudice decided who got a job and who got promoted? The next president will choose as many as three new members of the Supreme Court; will his choices respect, protect and extend existing civil rights laws or will they tear them down? The answers to these questions, and the votes you cast on Election Day, will decide what policies our country follows in the future. And your vote will decide whetheryour precious tax dollars are spent building up your community or building up another one — a community where people vote too, but may not vote the same way you do. Make sure you use your highest political IQ on Election Day. Make sure you use your vote too. And use your IQ. A mind, the United Negro College Fund reminds us, is a terrible thing to waste.
