We Are Destroyed For Lack of Knowledge.

Hello,
We are less than a week away from voting for president. What normally would be an exciting time has turned into a fearful time. For the first time there are a huge percentage of Americans going to the polls totally uneducated about the candidates, especially one in particular. Because of the mainstream media has spoon feed just what they wanted the people to have.

When you vote you need to be aware of who you are voting for. Once you cast your vote it can not be taken back. It is sad that a lot of people do not understand who this Obama fellow really is. It is a shame and a travesty that the general population lacks the knowledge of his background and his associations. If the media had done it's job and given out all the information it had and you felt this is your man. Great, you have made your choice the American way and you can hold your head up proud. But to vote with only a fraction of the knowledge is sad and wrong and very dangerous.

There is a bible verse that comes to mind here,
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6.

Don't settle for a lack of knowledge or be afraid of the truth.
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32.

We need a good measure of healing in this country now. And we will need a very large measure after the election. For I fear there will be a great divide in this great land of ours. Abraham Lincoln said, "A house divided can not stand". That was pertinent in his time, it is also pertinent in our time.

We have always had a common mooring to set us straight and back on course together. The Constitution and when that needed help, the Declaration of Independence. These documents remind us who we are and the price that was paid so we can go in freedom and vote. But again, we must vote with knowledge and understanding exactly who the candidates are.

Friend, we are in this ship together and we need each other. These are hazardous times and they are filled with danger from a very uncertain world. It lurks from without and from within. Lets not allow the danger to strike from within. Lets become bonded together with strength and determination to leave our posterity with a loving and caring land in which to grow up in.

May God bless America.
