We are 4 women bound by blood, 3 sisters and their mother. Our goal is to help each other become the best we can be. Helping each other we can improve our intelligence, image, health, wealth, talents and abilities. We are each magical and powerful when we stand alone, but we are amazingly powerful when we stand together, and the results are out of this world. We talk about our natural hair, our weight, fashion, food, parties and living well. We make the ultimate Mother Daughter Team.

We have all heard Trump telling his frankly proud alt-right deplorables to monitor the polls. We have all heard how some of them are bringing their guns. That's odd because many precincts are held at elementary schools (gun & drug free zones). Some counties in America are canceling school for that reason. Fear has been a major weapon used to suppress the vote (liberal votes, women & minorities and anyone voting against the GOP). Your vote is the most powerful weapon against fear. Now I personally believe you should vote early. I think it is the safest way to protect yourself and your vote. It gives you time to deal with any problems that may come up. It frees you up to help get out the vote on November 8th. It makes it harder to target you if you vote at an early voting center instead of your personal precinct. But let's say you can't vote early and you are afraid of being harassed by some Trumpkin Trumpster Fire. There is no reason to go to your polling precinct alone.

That's right there is no reason to fear going to the polls. Plan a voting party. Make a voting parade for family and friends. Of course don't wear any campaign material to the polls because that is illegal but you don't have to go there alone. Coordinate a time when you and your family go to vote. If you all live in the same precinct it makes life easy. Plan to vote early that morning and then have brunch together. If you don't all live in the same precinct then plan this party right. Pick a 2 hour window in which you will begin your voting party. Start in the precinct that you have the most voters and then work your way out from there. Go to the next nearest precinct to the one you just left. Stick together. Give yourselves enough time to get to each precinct and make it fun. At the very least you can set up a buddy system. Go to the polls in twos or threes. Find neighbors who have like political views and plan to go with them. No one has a right to intimidate you. No one has a right to suppress your vote. Vote early together, have breakfast together and if you have to go to work go to work and then meet up later for drinks. Take lunch breaks together and go and vote. Your employer must give you time off to vote it is the law. If you wait to vote after work, well it will be more fun to have someone wait in line with you. Hopefully happy hour will still be going on after you vote. After this election we all deserve Happy Hour.
As Americans we should all be angry! We have a great country but Trump tells us we are beat up and beat down. Really? Really? I have a few questions for you. Of what country do you wish you were a citizen? If you are American, do you feel lucky that you are American? Really, have you thought about it? I have. All four of us feel lucky to be American. Now don't get me wrong. We love other countries. We are addicted to Korean Dramas and Japanese Anime. We love listening to French and Arabic music. What the hell, we love every corner on this beautiful planet; even when we don't. Why is Trump trying to make us think that being American is being disadvantaged. Being American is the greatest advantage. Now being women and a minorities has its disadvantages in America but being American is still pretty awesome.
Trump treats America like a creepy guy treats a beautiful woman. You know the type. Creepy guy says, "Oh you were once that hottest girl in here but not anymore. Those girls over there are so much hotter than you." Trump keeps telling America she's no longer "that hot" so that her confidence is shattered and she takes him home, or in this case, votes for him. I am here to tell you, America, you are still the hottest girl on the planet. No need to take that creep home! America you know why you are so pretty? Women are free to get an education, dress how they please and decide their own futures. In America we can marry who we love, man or woman (black, white, asian, native american or latino)! America you are hot because you are a melting pot of ideas and cultures and because of this you are extremely creative. But most of all America you are beautiful because you are still evolving, changing and progressing. One day full equality will be achieved by you and your citizens. One day your people will achieve true tolerance. One day we will all look at each other and see HOW BEAUTIFUL WE ARE and a creep like Trump will never approach us!
Last Saturday, Faith and Mom (Glenda the Good) went to a charity ball (Pink Ball for breast cancer). At the same time Joy and I went to a political event to meet Jim Gray. Jim Gray is running for US Senate. Then Joy and I went to dinner at a four star restaurant. Then all four of us met at home. Changed into our hottest clothes and went to the gay Club Play. (Every race, culture, sexual preference, gender, age group and religion was there, even muslim!) Yes, that was all in one evening. That is what it means to live in America!
I was going to talk about how my family is divided between Halloween and the election. I was going to say that Mom & Faith are focused on our party. Joy is focused on making the best contacts for us and of course I am focused mainly on saving our country from the reality show American Horror Story: Election. Mom and Faith just walked into the house and guess what? They had a two hour "discussion" with a Trump supporter. Faith is vowing to not go out again unless absolutely necessary. For her, running into another Trump supporter would be a real nightmare. And there you have it, even mom (Glenda the Good) and Faith Hope, who have been the only two fighting to enjoy Halloween got pulled into this horror story today.
We have an election with a p**sy groping hand, claims that the Central Park 5 aren't innocent (even though they are), Putin digging around in American politics, and racism becoming mainstream! It is a nightmare and for a while mom and Faith did their best to keep this election in the far background of their lives. We are all voting for Clinton. We all watch the debates. I unfortunately spend almost every moment online and watching CNN and MSNBC. Don't get me wrong Halloween is like my favorite holiday. My ringtone used to be the theme song from the movie Halloween. I really wish I could relax and enjoy this time but I can't. I am worried about my beloved country. We are a proud melting pot with many beautiful holidays and traditions including Halloween. We are a divided family because we can't agree on how we need to spend our time. We are all voting but I feel we need to do more than that. The rest of My Royal Family 4 would like spend more time enjoying this beautiful Fall weather, of course they can't really because the election is everywhere and they are very concerned.
I want to have a good time but the election is literally ruining what would normally be great moments. When the four of us go out to a bar we hear awful things from these Trump supporters. When we watch the debates we scream at the TV because of the ridiculous, racist, sexist and just plain wrong things that Trump says. We are even disagreeing on how to respond to this living nightmare. I say we vote early and go to a battleground state on election day. Mom says we should vote and just live our lives. Mom and I had a major argument. She raised all of us to be active in defending our rights as women and as black women. I know that our energy will help get at least one person to vote that may have skipped the polls. I think we should be in a battleground state on election day. Joy and Faith are remaining neutral. They both think our energy needs to focus on our businesses but they also want to be part of the festivities election day.
Tomorrow is the last debate. I had planned to have a party but after the last debate I am afraid. We will watch but we may not invite people over. Then again we may. We throw last minute parties all the time. The first debate Faith made Korean food. The second debate we went to Clinton's Louisville, KY headquarters. Tomorrow we will stay home. I think the theme should be comfort food. We need some comfort right now. I intend to vote this Friday. I intend to be in a battleground state on Nov. 8, 2016. I must admit I am tired of it all. This Saturday Halloween will have my focus. I will try my best to make sure the rest of the 4 feel great and energized. I will do my best to make this nightmare of an election our best HALLOWEEN EVER! I don't know how but it starts right after the last debate and I can't wait. If I get Joy, Mom and Faith really happy maybe they will help me on Nov. 8th. I'm not asking them to work all day, just maybe 2 hours and then we'll explore the city. Maybe spread some early Holiday cheer. I added a poll asking what city we should visit, please vote. It will help me persuade them.
