Neither mom and dad nor grandma and grandpa can help you with this decision. You have earned this one on your own. It is time for you to step up to the plate and get ready to vote.

But first, you have to register.

It is a privilege you earned when you turned 18 years old. That’s right! You can also join the armed forces, and, heaven forbid, you can also buy smokes.

Now let’s get back to the voting right. Many important and not so important things have happened throughout voting history. You will become a very important person once you register and are able to vote.

Now, on the other hand, if you don’t register to vote, you won’t be that important, so don’t complain about our politicians. Once they know you don’t vote they will drop you like a hot potato.

Are you getting my drift?

This is a very important part of your life, and it affects your livelihood whenever you start voting.

Utilize your constitutional right as a bona fide citizen of the USA. Use your right proudly when you turn 18 years old.

Get registered, and go vote.
