We may not have the best of choices for our next president but we must cast our vote; it is our right and duty if we care about the United States of America. Don't complain if you don't vote

Three Days Out By Franklin Price 11/5/2016 Three days out and then it's done Will have elected only one To be the leader of this land Drum major of the marching band The people's options worse than bad The worst this country's ever had But we must use our voting voice For whom we think is our best choice Don't stay at home and hide your head Go to the polls and vote instead Tuesday night when all is done We will have selected only one If the elected turns out good Can say I voted as I should If turns out bad then I can say I cast my vote the other way If I do not go to cast my vote I cannot say a thing of note I have no right to have a say About who's in election day
