Washington, D.C. - StopPoliticalCalls.org
O.K. O.K. I know that I'm messing with political quotation history with the historic JFK 1961 inauguration quote:
And so, my fellow americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
With this election about "change" and many candidates talking about it, I thought it would be useful to simply state to the American Voter:
And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what change can do for you - ask what you can do for change.
Obama wants to be the "change" candidate. Change to what? He is not clear. Hillary wants to make sure that you don't "hope" for change but actually work for it. Edwards wants to change the economic distribution system. Mitt wants to change back to Reagan, McCain wants to change nothing, and Huckabee doesn't really know what change he wants but he knows that he'll need to stop it at the boarder.
However, instead of hoping for change to come from a candidate, try actually doing something yourself and changing your small part of this great nation.
* Mentor a child
* Pick up the trash on your street
* Donate your time at the local library
* Give money to worthy charities - great place to start to learn would be GlobalGiving.com
* etc...
Go ahead, be the change.
You must be the change you want to see in the world.
