Dear Wayman Nation,
"People who do not vote have no line of credit with people who are elected and thus pose no threat to those who act against our interests."--Marian Wright Edelman
On Super Tuesday, February 5, 2008, you have the opportunity to take the first step to exercise your right as an American. As African Americans, we know that many people died for our right to vote. We take this right seriously because we know that our country is facing "the fierce urgency of now."
We must not waste this opportuity to give voice to our needs and concerns. We must move our initiatives into real action by going to the polls and casting our vote in this primary election. If we are to be recognized as a formidable force within our nation and in St. Louis, then it is crucial that we turn out in large numbers to vote. Now is our greatest opportunity to generate enough momentum to creaste an atomosphere that--because of our large voter turnout--will provide us with influence in not only the White House, but Congress, the State House, and here in the city and county of St. Louis.
To locate your polling place, see:
So whomever you choose to vote for, I just enourage you to vote! Every vote makes a difference.
Yours in Christ,
Pastor Timothy E. Tyler |
