I know a lot of folks are disgusted with the candidates and have decided not to vote at all, but here is what you will be doing by not voting...

You are letting others decide your future and your children's future.

By not voting you are saying, "I really don't care if..."

- If my taxes go up or down

- If babies can be aborted in the third trimester

- If the Supreme Court becomes a totally liberal pro-gay, anti-Christian rights establishment that runs Christians out of business for refusing to serve gay customers (Christian bakers fined $135,000 for refusing to make cake for a gay wedding fight back)

- If men can use women's bathrooms
- If little boys can shower in little girl's locker rooms

- If Christians can no longer have free speech or the right to pray in public

- If our wounded and disabled veterans will continue to be neglected, made to wait and be grossly mistreated by the VA.

- If billions of our hard earned tax money is given freely to foreign countries without any benefit to us whatsoever.

- If our borders are not secure

- If terrorists can easily assimilate into the un-vetted 60,000 syrian refugees that Clinton wants to bring in when she becomes president. Obama wants to bring in 10,000.

- If our government refuses to identify terrorism at home and refuses to call it radical islam (calling it workplace violence and things like that instead)

- If ISIS keeps growing into a bigger threat than it already is

- If you want your health insurance premiums to keep rising, completely unabated by competition in the marketplace
(obamacare guarantees that every person living in the US be a customer of theirs. Car insurance on the other hand is only for those who personally chose to own a car)

PLEASE NOTE:

I am not saying Trump will fix all these problems...

I am saying that with Hillary, she pretty much GUARANTEES they will become reality (if they don't already exist like obamacare)

-If you want the government to take even more control over healthcare by turning it into a single slayer system.

-If you want more government regulations/taxes/fines over businesses in the name of global warming/climate change/global cooling.

-If you want the national deficit to go up another 5 trillion(to $25 trillion) in the next 4 years.

The only legitimate reason not to vote is if you want Hillary to win the election.

That is far from the truth. One could say the same about Trump.

It doesn't motivate people to vote when someone supporting one of the Candidates lies to people about why they should vote............just saying

Not true. Neither Clinton OR Trump can do any of the things you state by themselves. Some few things by Presidential Order, but not all of the things you state. Congress MUST ACT.

So, if one VOTES wisely for their Congressional persons, then they do well. It does not mean they don't care if they realize that NEITHER Clinton or Trump deserve to be in the White House.

Honesty and truth will serve far better to motivate people to vote than deceptive "guilting" commentaries.

just saying........

What are the Republicans doing about the third trimester abortions? I haven't heard any Republican outcry about the murders on babies if they were conceived by rape or incest. How can a person say he or she is pro life when they're advocating murder on children having the wrong father? Hypocrisy at its finest! You're either pro life or pro choice. The Republicans are pro life regarding some children, and pro choice regarding other children. This means they are totally pro choice.

Congress doesn't have the votes to override our pro-abortion POTUS.

Everyone, by the way, is "pro-choice" on something. I'm pro-choice on school vouchers & concealed weapons. Interestingly, I have to state the issue I'm referring to.

Abortion advocates, then, should have to do the same.

One is either pro-life or for abortion rights / abortion on demand. Don't let them avoid the word "abortion" by allowing them to sugar-coat their position with "choice".

Some might say that GOD Is going to allow whoever the next PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES might be to humble the US of A.
