To The Editor: It is only few weeks until we vote for president of the United States. I believe this is the most histori-cal and important election in our lifetime. Our nation is in shambles, our wallets are empty and the future is uncertain. Do you truly believe that one person can fix all that is wrong? Trust me Vir-ginia, there may be a Santa Claus but Superman is only a comic book character. No matter who sits in the Oval Office, if Congress does not agree, nothing will be done again. In addition, it is we, the masses who it hurts. My parents believed that casting a vote should be secret. I assume that’s why there are curtains in front of the voting booth. I do not believe that. I am going to shout out loud whom I am voting for and I will tell you why. I listened to the debates and the media, and it is all rhetorical. I like and dislike something from each candidate’s position but, for me, it boils down to loyalty. I remember when John McCain came home from the POW camp in Vietnam. I saw him on the six-o’clock news. John McCain served his country well. Nearly gave his life for it. If Vietnam was wrong or right, it does not matter, he was there. He served, he endured torture, and he did that for all of us. John McCain represented all Americans during that time of his life. I believe I owe him something for his sacrifice. Yes, for me, it boils down to loyalty. I am a registered Democrat, and I am voting for the McCain/Palin ticket. PAT SOLDO Villas
