[Vision2020] MCA Debates

Thu Oct 28 04:32:42 PDT 2004

Visionaries,

This was sent to Tom last night, I meant to send it to everyone, some day
I'll learn which buttons are "reply all" and "reply"!

I firmly believe the most important duty, we, as citizens of this country
can do is to become aware of the issues important to us, and VOTE!!! If you
have a neighbor, friend or know someone that is unable to get to the polls,
give them a ride.

The Presidential Debates were far from boring! I felt they were educational
and informative. *slow smile* Can you all imagine what would happen if Bush
and Kerry had a real debate, as Mr. Harkins outlined? The image I paint in
my mind is rather vivid! *smile* How about the rest of you?

I was not implicating the debates were boring, they weren't.  I was
referring to Carl's Totally Unscientific Poll of September 30 which I posted
below my name.

This is one of the most intense elections on all levels I recall. On
election night, I will be glued to my television waiting for the polls to
close. Election Day is such an exciting time personally to me. Have a great
day everyone. I am so thankful to live in a country where I CAN vote.

As follows in my private msg to Tom, which was supposed to be to Vision2020,
after that Carl's Poll.

*****
Tom,

There is one thing I firmly believe all of us on this list can agree on.
*wry smile* or maybe not? *chuckling* Anyway... Nothing about this
election, from the local level up to the Office of President has been boring
this year.

In my opinion, maybe even all of us can agree on this, as well. Whatever the
outcome of this Presidential Election, it will shape our country, and the
world for years to come. No matter which way your political beliefs tilt.

Janesta Carcich
Private Citizen

I was referring, tongue in cheek, to Carl's Totally Unscientific Poll on
September 30 below.
