Right now, the US Election is an important current event and we want to hear from you!  Not sure what to write about? Here are some suggestions:

• What are your thoughts on the US Election campaign?  Was it a fair and clean campaign, or was it dominated by smear tactics and propaganda?
  
• How do you feel about the candidates and their platforms? Can there be change under McCain?  Will Obama be able to live up to his historical place in US politics?
  
• How will you vote, and why?  If your candidate loses, what do you think will be the biggest reason?
• Has race been made too big an issue in this campaign?  If so, has it been the political parties that have put race on the agenda, or is the media to blame? Or is it the behavior of party supporters (Democratic and/or Republican) that have put racial politics in the spotlight?
• What do you consider to be stand out moments during the campaign, and which events would you file in the campaigning hall of shame?
• Did you register to vote?  If yes, how did you find the process in your state?  If no, why not?
• Did you vote early?  How did you vote? What did you think of the voting process?  Were there any stand-out issues or problems when you went to cast your ballot?
• On voting day: How well run were the polls in your area?  Were there any barriers to your casting a vote?  If yes, what were those barriers and what would you have done differently?
• What do you think of the issues?  What is the most important thing facing the United States today? What is the least important?
• What do you think about celebrity endorsements?  Do they sway your vote?  Or do they just annoy you?
