Animal Crackers

So I was eating animal crackers today when I got inspired and decided to do what you see above, using an elephant cracker, a donkey cracker, and two school folders. I'm so nutty...

As we all know, the election is coming up soon. You may or may not know who to vote for. You're probably still contemplating on whether or not you should vote at all--but that shouldn't be the question! EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE! If you can't vote yet, then encourage your parents to vote! We have the privilege to choose who we want to lead this country, so let's let our voices be heard.

Most importantly, I'd like to encourage everyone to vote as a Christian. Don't just vote for someone because of their race, gender, popularity, speaking ability, or good looks. Research where they stand on the issues. Grab yourself a voter's guide and see what they're for and against. Listen to their speeches and see if you agree with what they say, or rather, if GOD agrees with what they say.

So, VOTE! As James Russell Lowell wrote, "Our father's fought for liberty, they struggled long and well, history of their deeds can tell--but ourselves must set us free."
