Well, folks, it's election time here in North America, both in Canada and in the USA. As usual, the polical rhetoric is flying out of control on both sides of the border.
What I am finding very difficult to understand is why some politicians get ANY serious attention.
At this point in time, I think I'm still just calm enough not to start telling you who I think you should vote for.
However, what I WILL tell you is that I think anyone who relies on the major news networks and political ads to make up their minds who to vote for might as well put on a blindfold and throw darts at a list of names!
Just as I have posted time and again for people to do their due diligence when choosing what and who to involve themselves with in business, so I would say you need to do your due diligence in choosing who you're going to vote for.
Think of it this way... if you were going to invest your hard earned money in something, would you simply invest in the very first thing that comes along, or would you do some serious checking, first?
Similarly, if you were going to hire someone to manage your business, would you hire just anyone, based entirely on what he told you, or would you check his references, first?
Seriously, folks - you're about to hire new help to step in and run your country!! Don't let lying politicians and biased media tell you who to choose. If you can read this message, you have in front of you all the tools you need to find out a LOT about the candidates for this job.
If you have already decided who you're going to vote for based on what you've heard in the media, then this message is not for you. You're probably one on the thousands and likely millions out their who has decided to "vote for change," simply because some lying politician with no real credentials has told you to via the TellthemVision in your living room.
Change to WHAT from WHAT? If you can give me an intelligent answer, you just might get my attention. If you can't, well... you deserve what you get and you get what you deserve.
I'm praying for our countries.
God bless,
Dave
