Votin' Day

As I voted today I was reminded of what I think are the two greatest political thriller films of the 20th Century--The Manchurian Candidate (1962) and Seven Days in May (1964)--both of which dealt with extreme ways of changing the political climate of our country.

All I had to do to affect change was make an informed decision and mark a box. No spies. No armies. Just a brain and a pencil.

Now, how cool is that?
