America the Beautiful


Today I am thankful for my FREEDOM. I feel so blessed to live in a country where the people are the voice. In our constitution some of the things we are guaranteed is that we have the right to free speech, bear arms, and religion. These rights are constantly under attack and that's why it infuriates me when people don't vote, I don't care if "technically" someone my think their vote doesn't count, we live in America where we have the privilege, and responsibility to make this nation great! Your vote is a symbol of freedom.
In the Book of Mormon the Lord promises the Nephites that as long as the voice of the people is a righteous voice the people will prosper but, when the majority of the people are wicked they will be swept off the face of the land. Use your freedom and Vote!
