I’ve long believed that the low voter turnouts in the United States are our great National shame. For Americans, who hold themselves out the the world as THE example of Democracy, to show such disregard for the simple act of voting is just embarresing. We have forgotten the importance and value of our vote. We have forgotten about the price paid by others to protect that right.
But this is America, and perhaps another approach is needed. If voting was a lottery, would you vote then? Would you register to vote for the chance to win $100,000? Go for it then, maybe you (or I for referring you) might win. Then rememer to actually vote, then we all win. And while you’re at it, does it make sense then to also sleep only with Voters?
