It is so sad to see the turnout for elections on Tuesday were so low. Yet the same people who couldn’t find the time to vote are usually the first ones to throw a tantrum when something is being built near their home that they do not approve of or that their child is being moved to a different school five minutes away.

 The apathy U.S. citizens show for our “right” to vote amazes me. The next thing you know we will nominate someone for president with hardly any politcal experience and only a single word campaign ...
