Who are you going to vote for this year? Obama or McCain? I personally want to see the Democrat wins this time and see the difference, for I realize that if McCain is going to win, his way is going to be the same as Bush’s. Some part of the country wants McCain, and some wants Obama. Everyone does have their own belief system, but for the most part they want something that is best for them. To call them selfish, I am afraid it is a little bit harsh. But how many people really think about choosing a president is more like for the “community” than just for “individualism” compared to other choices in life, or compared to an egoistical character? Taxes verses wars, which one would you prefer? Equality of human rights regarding marriage whether you are gay or straight? So on and so forth. These may not be important to you, but are these important to the majority of the people in the United States?

I usually don’t like politics and I don’t want to involve any discussions about it. We all try the best we can to have something that is best for us. When we walk in our enemies’ shoes, we probably see that we are just as stubborn as them, and want the same thing that they want. I would like to ask you to step back and think about this issue. Consider it for the whole US rather than just for yourself. Look around at your friends, family, and even the world that are in need more than you do. What matters to you maybe just a piece of thing, but to them something else can mean the whole world and even a change in their lives. Money is just money, but peace and equality is the true happiness in life that money cannot buy. After this, if you think that you are making a good choice for yourself, I still respect your choice because it makes you feel good and pleased with your decision making that is best for you and maybe some other people. If things are meant to happen, they will happen. But I personally believe in making a difference. No matter who will win, I still strive to achieve that. One of my favorite quotes by Tom Brokaw is “It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.”
