44. I like it that you are practicing democracy there in the Lake-City-Lake.
Thank you for the generosity, but also for the booth. Senator Obama is a wonder. I'm not in favor of the voter ID cards but do believe that voters should be required to listen to a dozen or so historical speeches before they cast a vote in any election. Lincoln's Address at Gettysburg, the first Kerry-Bush debate, Mario Cuomo's convention addresses, and not least, Senator Obama's keynote address in Boston in 04. That one was a very high water mark as far as I'm concerned. C-Span or the History Channel will run it every now and then. I guess we can't force voters to listen to these addresses, but the outcome of a lot of elections would change if they did.

You keep on keepin' on, good person.
