What I saw at the polling station - Rep. Elijah Cummings

by Annabel Park


Congressman Elijah Cummings tells a very moving story of what he saw at a polling station recently in his district in Baltimore. It captures beautifully what this election is about. A woman close to 90 years of age says she is voting for the last time in her life. She entrusts Rep. Cummings with the message she wants to pass on the baton to the next generation, and Rep. Cummings shares that message with us.


While expressing the reverence and love he has for this woman, Rep. Cummings also points woman would not have been able to vote with the kind of voter ID laws passed in some states this year.


A must for anyone who's thinking about not voting this year. This is part of my new documentary series, Story of America: A Nation Divided

This video is showing you the different opinions that people have on keeping a weapon in the school for protection.  The teachers don't feel comfortable with keeping a weapon so close to the young children, but at the same time, a gun in the class room could potentially save many lives if you are given a chance to act.

I agree i would not want to have guns in the school. What if a kid got a hold of it than did another repeat. That would not be good.

Good point Brandon, and what about a class full of kids running for the door, can someone guarantee no bystanders won't be hit? At what consequence to the person firing?
