You absolutely MUST vote tomorrow.
You can't just say you favored one guy over the other and not show up to vote.
You must vote tomorrow.

Some Presidential election years,
I say 'It doesn't matter who you vote for, just vote.'

I might even have been able to tell myself I believed that.
Even if I wanted you to vote AGAINST the Republican.

But this time, I really want you to vote FOR Obama.

Times will be hard even if Obama wins.
Obama is not a savior.

But he is the much better choice in every way:

Much smarter & savvier than the other candidate.
He will choose the better advisers by far (Soros, Buffett).
He has an ego - but not the kind that gets in the way of clarity.
He has a unique ability to not take the hate bait.
He's accustomed to having productive conversations with people that
don't agree with him.


Even if you only vote based on taxes, he's the better choice:

If you think Obama is more elitist than the other candidate, think
about what elitism really
is:http://www.wisestartupblog.com/the-elitist-barack-obama-drives-1-car-and-owns-1-house/1409

And he brings positive energy to an endeavor.
He can communicate a clear vision of the best option for more people.

When I think of the most effective Presidents - even the ones I never
agreed with (coughReagan) - it was their talent for communication that
made them Presidents We Remember.

And, more than in any time since the 1930's, we need someone who can
paint clear pictures of the best paths available.

So vote as if it is the most important vote you have ever made.
Because it is the most important vote you have ever made.
