Voting is the expression of our commitment to ourselves, one another, this country and this world.

Of course voting is useful. But then again, I don't put a big glow to it. Voting is about as essential as washing yourself. It's something you're supposed to do. Now, you can't go around bragging, expecting to get props because you voted. That's stupid.

A vote is like a rifle; its usefulness depends upon the character of the user.

Voting is like alchemy - taking an abstract value and breathing life into it.

Voting is as much an emotional act as it is an intellectual one.

No one individual vote, no one individual quote or no one individual statement defines me, my beliefs, or my record.

Voting is the foundational act that breathes life into the principle of the consent of the governed.

It is fundamentally important in our system of government that every American be given the opportunity to vote, regardless of who they are, where they live, and what their race or national origin may be.

Voting is a right best exercised by people who have taken time to learn about the issues.

Voting is how we participate in a civic society - be it for president, be it for a municipal election. It's the way we teach our children - in school elections - how to be citizens, and the importance of their voice.
