As people stream out to the polls to elect either Barack Obama or John McCain the next President of the United States of America, this election has focused around "change" from the current path this country has taken.
Keep in mind, however, that regardless of who is elected today, the REAL power to change things lies in the hands of the PEOPLE.
Wall Street meltdown? The American people let that happen, from seemingly intelligent businesspeople to everyday citizens.
Global Warming? This is one of the greatest catastrophes of all time, also created by humans like you and me.
Iraq War? True, this one was led by the current President, but Americans still enabled it to happen and continue.
This list could go on and on.
Ultimately, if the people of the country truly want change, they have to be more involved and not rely just on the President and other elected officials to make it happen. Talk is cheap, voting is cheap, but doing something about the problems on an individual level is the best way to really bring about change...
