"Voting is not a responsibility, it is a right"

It's not only a right but an obligation.

Lack of research and investigation of issues and candidates and voting inteligently by the public is what has gotten us into the mess that we're in today.

Responsibility is a should, obligation is a must.

So then you both agree that being an INFORMED voter is an obligation as well??

Kudos to you Slip for getting back into the convo...I am listening intently to what you are ALL saying. ((HUGS))
