Dear Editor:
From the long buried battlefields of other countries, through the Poppy fields of Europe and our own Arlington, on infamous names and blood stained hands of “leaders” like Stalin and Hitler, and Edie Amin and Ho Chi Minh, through regimes of ethnic cleansing, and civil rights abuses in Africa and Afghanistan and all parts of Asia, Major and Minor, and Arabia, and the suffragette women, and the races of men, who fight for it – then and yet, one freedom overcomes them all – the right to vote – don’t ignore the sacrifices that sponsored it and the collective raw courage, under fire, that made it possible. Don’t abuse it, use it! Get out and vote!
Margaret O’Brien
