I don’t talk politics in a right versus wrong sort of way. But I want to get off-topic from Internet marketing for a second and say something. I’m so proud to be an American. I cry when I vote. I tear up because I’m such a lucky woman to be able to elect my government and have a say without being stoned to death or other horrible repercussions.

Tonight, my 9 year old son says to me, “Mom – it doesn’t matter who wins tomorrow because history will be made – Americans should be proud!”

Do you hear that Americans? Republicans? Democrats? Independents?

We bicker and fight and bless our hearts, we CAN! It’s wonderful. But I hope no matter who wins tomorrow, we can unite like we did in the days after 9/11 and build this country up stronger than it’s ever been.

I voted early. I wasn’t enthusiastic about either choice, to be honest. I respect both men in different ways. I’m proud that we’ve come farther in the United States so we can HAVE a woman and an African American on the ticket. I think it’s wonderful.

I’m proud of our country and we need to instill this pride in our children.
