Don't vote! Unless you're not American!

I know it's hardly an original sentiment, but I'd like to take this historic election-day opportunity to say: please, please, for the love of humanity, if you're an American and you don't want to vote in today’s election, or don't have any strong feelings or reliable information (and if you still think that Obama is a Muslim and that that makes him scary, I'm definitely talking to you) -- don't vote.

I only want thinking people out there, and of course by "thinking" I mean “people who agree with me.”

Now: if you're not American (okay, or even if you are, but it's kind of cooler if you live somewhere else), you should most definitely vote in America's presidential election. Go to a wonderful site I just learned about, "If The World Could Vote?":

Cast your completely legally non-binding vote, and take a look at who people are voting for all over the world. If you're a homeschooler, this is an awesome educational opportunity for so many reasons that I'm tired just thinking about them.

I have to go finish the laundry. And then I have to go vote. And then I have to bake some three-chocolate brownies. I figure I'll need them tonight: either to celebrate, or to drown my sorrows.
