If you don't VOTE..the terrorists have already WON.
THIS IS THE MESSAGE: We need to create a new sense of community. A sense of fun, celebration, and victory as we encourage people to take on the simple task of voting for their choice.

Do some people feel jaded and believe there is "little choice"? Undoubtedly some who aren't paying attention do feel that way as do extreme activists.

We must encourage them to imagine going through their life in Vietnam or China or Saudi Arabia and not being able to cast a vote. Ever.

Let them know this is their way to speak to the world of terrorists that we are a free and open society and WE count it a privilege to vote and WON'T BE DENIED.

If more work is involved because GOP is trying to suppress vote...go the extra mile (maybe literally) to get that vote in anyway. Don't let them dictate to us.

WE ARE THE GOVERNMENT
