I always enjoy voting and the elections process. Since 1976 I have generally walked precincts for someone or some issue. Two things always happen when I do this. First off, many people really have no idea what the issues are and what the various candidates are planning to do. Secondly, we have an incredible number of people in this country who are just plain lonely. Many folks keep me at their door for thirty or forty minutes just to have someone to talk to. Now if we could just move our general election from November to September so I didn't have to do this in the rain...
