doesn't make any difference whatsoever.

be a democratically elected government - at all.
So, does your vote matter? You bet your vote matters.
And, at least as much as your vote matters,
your intention for the future of the world matters.
That's so important, it's worth saying again.

Your Intention For The Future Of The Entire World Matters.

I believe that everything happens for a reason.
