Elections are around the corner. We have the chance to choose our representatives one more time. I grew up in another country. It was a place where democracy has been hurt, and people fight every day for the possibility of voting. Sometimes, I feel Americans take voting for granted, and it is not. We should treat Democracy as we treat a romantic relationship; we need to work on it every day.
