Voting is not just a right, it's a duty

Voting is not just a right, it's a duty

"On Sept. 18, 1787, the final day of the constitutional convention, Benjamin Franklin emerged from Independence Hall in Philadelphia and out into the crowd of curious spectators. The people were waiting anxiously for news of what form of government he and his fellow delegates had created for the young nation.

A woman stepped forward and asked Mr. Franklin, "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"

Without hesitation, Mr. Franklin replied, "A republic, if you can keep it." "

No one is asking you to pick up a gun and storm the halls of congress, just a pen/stylus and VOTE!!!!!!!!!

I do not believe I have seen this depicted that way before. You actually have made this so much clearer for me. Thanks!
