One of the few things I'm going to say about this

Or, rather, one of the few things I'm going to quote about the upcoming election:

"Stop voting for people you want to have a beer with. Stop voting for folksy. Stop voting for people who remind you of your neighbor. Stop voting for the ideologically intransigent, the staggeringly ignorant, and the blazingly incompetent.

Vote for someone smarter than you. Vote for someone who inspires you. Vote for someone who has not only traveled the world but who has also shown a deep understanding and compassion for it. The stakes are real and they're terrifyingly high. This election matters. It matters. It really matters. Let me say that one more time. This. Really. Matters."

Michael Seitzman

P.S. It's pronounced "noo-KLEE-urh" not "nook-YOO-lurh."

Hope everyone is registered to vote... it does really matter.

Hey MAE . . . have you been over to facebook lately? I did the EXACT same thing with the phonetic spelling of nuclear. Too weird.

And oh, how I agree with Mr. Seitzman.
