-- we are within hours Election Day record numbers have already early voted including me.

I voted Wednesday so there's nothing that a candidate can do to change my vote.

But the campaign's gonna continue right until the polls closed Tuesday night now we've been told for the most of two years this election is gonna be about jobs in the economy.

I don't disagree with that.

It's what the election probably will be about.

But this election ought to be about the dramatic difference between two parties to world views two candidates and two futures.

Now if you believe the tax more and spend more and have government run more of your wife is working forests then you're gonna want to vote for Barack Obama.

And if you believe that higher taxes gives government money.

That could instead -- your job.

In Mitt Romney is more likely your choice.

Look I don't pretend to be a predictor of elections but this much I do know.

I -- something very strong movement across this country.

On August 1 people lined up and waited in line for hours to buy a chicken sandwich so America would hear their voices.

I believe choosing those same people are going to be willing to wait in line for hours to cast a vote so America will feel their votes.

This is not just an election about our paychecks.

This is an election about our principles.

I believe everyone's life has value.

And I don't accept the notion that anyone is disposable are expendable.

I'm not gonna vote for someone who fails to respect the dignity and worth of every individual.

But I also believe this election ought to be about America's place in the world.

I'm not at all satisfied that we're being given straight and honest answers about the murder of our ambassador.

In three other Americans and then -- The lack of transparency and accountability for what happened and the ever changing stories from this administration are troubling.

It's one thing for a politician to embellish -- story or stretch the truth just to make a point.

But for the government to knowingly and willingly -- its citizens for political self preservation.

It's not a political failure that's a moral failure.

Now maybe you're willing to overlook that I am most certainly not.

We saw the horrors of our fellow citizens abandon in the neighborhoods of New Jersey New York Connecticut.

And throughout the northeast following the wrath of hurricane sandy.

For some of them to wait days for rescued from their flooded homes.

And then others to go days without food or water in the most resourceful city on earth is unimaginable.

And to think that American personnel and been Ghazi went for hours without help while under heavy weapons attack.

At -- imaginable.

We are just voting for a personality.

We're voting for the trust worthiness of the people we elect.

I have faith in people of faith those who believe in god and don't think he's out of style and disengaged.

And if those people.

Both their values they'll change the country but if they stay home.

They will be abandoning their children and grandchildren to a government they can't trust and a future they don't want.

So if you stood in line for a chicken sandwich.

Please.

Stand in line.

For your country.

That's my view.

All three days until.
