Francis Goldwyn

Democracy, democratic government, representative government, depends on all citizens honoring their first duty as a Citizen. A Citizen's first duty is the duty to vote, without fail. This applies to all Citizens regardless of race, color or creed. And it falls on each and every Citizen to ensure each and every other Citizen has the ability to vote, the means to vote, and unrestricted access to vote. It is not just my freedom to vote or your freedom to vote that matters. It is my responsibility as a Citizen to vote and to make sure others can do the same. We will never have a free and equal society until everyone steps up and performs their first responsibility as a Citizen in a free and democratic nation.
