History in the Making!

With the 2008 Presidential Election right around that corner, Washington, D.C., is a really exciting place to be. But you don’t have to be in Washington for it to be an exciting time. This truly is a historic election: voter turn-out will be higher than ever, and the next president will have to face a plethora of problems and will probably have to fight hard for reelection because in four years, the economy won’t be fixed, the housing market won’t be booming, the Ogallala Aquifer will still be running out of water, and healthcare will probably still be an issue.

There are many ways you can get involved to be a part of this history. You can become active on any of a variety of important issues, like those mentioned above, you can join a campaign (even if it is just volunteering to make phone calls or go door to door), or you can become an election officer and work the polls on election day to help you get involved in your community.

No matter how much or how little time you have, I urge you to, in some way, because involved in this upcoming election because it is history in the making!
