By the time we next meet at the Crossroads, the presidential polls will have closed ... so this is our charge to you: whether male or female, black or white, young or old, conservative or liberal, PLEASE vote. Don't get caught up in the politics (no pun intended) or the media hype ... just do some research, and vote for someone you like. It's worth standing in line, I promise. It's time for this great country of ours to come together.

Until next week ... stay positive.
