10 Mourning Doves (Zenaida macroura) on the wire in the LipsYard.If they were registered voters, only 1 would participate in today's primary (let's hope it's the blue dove.)
Lot's of American's "support our troops." I support the troops by paying taxes. I control our troops, and our democracy (it's really a republic) by voting. Only when a majority of Americans vote, will the true wishes of our nation be done. A true majority didn't elect our current Decider in Chief, and probably won't elect the next one either.
On a more local level, school board elections and referenda will determine what kind of country we have in the future, determined by what kind of education we provide today.
Be the dove that votes.
