Anyone who grows up in a territory of the United States learns about voting locally. We have some great political contests, full of fish fries, loud music, huge signs all over the island and lots of melee. We watch the antics here and on the mainland wishing we could vote for President but not being allowed to even though we are citizens of the United States. This has been a bone of contention for many years.

Anyway when one of our young moves off island to look for new jobs or head to school, they register to vote in what ever state they end up in. These kids are bright and look upon voting as a real important part of their allegiance to their country.

Today, I received this missive from a new working voter, learning the ropes in the states. I asked if I could publish it here as long as the writers name remained anonymous. This is a small place as you can understand.

I've been thinking about Mrs. Palin recently and her reluctance to be interviewed before she is

"READY".

Lots of things can interfere in our lives making us a bit uneducated concerning the countries pressing concerns. Running the state of Alaska, running a family and just being a working mother can leave little time to learn about where our nation stands on the issues.

Peace is not impossible.

Peace plays a major role daily and is dominant in all cultures.

Peace will reign throughout the world someday when its story can be heard over that of the war story.

For too long the story of peace has taken a back seat to the story of war.

When speakers are spread far and wide, from all cultures in the world, relaying the same message, peace will prevail.

Peace needs to be pointed out so people can recognize it resides with us on a daily basis and is dominant in all societies, even those being ruled by dictators, even those that are war torn right now.

When you really consider peace it is not difficult to find and its story is very simple.

Peace dominates, not war.
