Vote to protect the future

Why are hard working and financially struggling working class citizens voting away their health care, their social security, their IPERS, and their very future?
If you believe that your health care should cover pre-existing conditions, you'll need to vote for a Democrat.
If you expect your IPERS, your social security benefits, and your Medicare to be your retirement safety net, you'll need to vote for a Democrat.
We all put ourselves in danger, to one degree or another, when we stand up to power and demand change, but we place our children and our grandchildren in even greater danger when we don't!
There are only two viable choices in this crucial off year election on Nov. 6 - vote to improve your health care as well as to maintain your retirement funding - vote Democratic!
