Get Your Daily Dose Of “Comfy” Here

Welcome To A World Where Government Is Friendly & Fun!

Whether you choose to vote or not, you deserve to feel comfy in your country.  If you have an interest in voting, but can’t take the ‘politics’ of it all, you will enjoy this site. Ever thought you would get more involved if only you could do it on your own terms?  Now you can.  If you are unsure of politics, about registering to vote or about how our government works, this site will change that. What you won’t find here is negativity or name calling.  This is a judgement free zone.  Here you can ‘Get Comfy In Your Country.’

More Than A Presidential Election

Lisa Fontana No LabelsThough it’s the election we hear about the most, the presidential election is just one of many in which we can participate.  Government (and politics) exist on three levels:  Local (people in a specific town, city, county, etc.), State (the state as a whole) and National (the country as a whole).

What is Politics?  Politics is defined as the science or art of government. Me The People Vote

What is government?  While most people would define ‘government’ as a body that makes and enforces laws in a society, here is a useful definition that feels more fitting:  Government is the way we are together.   The way we are together as a community, as a state and as a country.  It’s the way we want to live, work and with whom we want to surround ourselves that shapes the choices we make.  Government is a big part of that, which is why we want to participate in the art and science of the way we are together.  That’s government and politics.

You Belong Here

Starting to feel nervous or overwhelmed?  Let’s fix that.  Forget duty and patriotism for a moment.  Ignore those who have used harsh words such as apathetic, ignorant, lazy or who have accused you of shirking your patriotic duty.  Take a cleansing breath, put your hand on your heart and listen – This is your country. You deserve to feel comfy in it.  Once you understand more about basic civics, citizenship and communication you can involve yourself in your own way on your own terms.

What You’ll Find

On this site, through YouTube and in the book Me, The People we’ll explore basic government.  You will learn what you need in order to get involved in the parts of your government that interest YOU. We will talk about the constitution, community, citizenship, government terms, American history and basic civics.  It’s okay to feel pride in your country, whatever that means to you.  It’s okay to get excited about YOUR country and finding your place in it!
