That is if youd like to come Like to come, answered Dorian With food and everything? Of course. I want to come. That was the answer Wendy had expected from Dorian. For Dorian was a little boy who would eat anything and eveiything in any place and every place at any time and every time. So it was no surprise to see Dorian standing at Wendy's door just minutes after he hung up the phone.

The word election comes from a Latin root meaning to choose. And the feeling people have had that they should have the right to choose their leaders goes back thousands of years. The ancient Hebrews and Greeks fought for that right. The early kings of Israel were chosen by the people, and so were the generals of the ancient Greek armies. Voting was usually limited to free white men with certain property and religious qualifications. Today we wouldnt consider that as being fair or democratic. By 1860 practically all the states allowed all white men over 21 to vote. But Negroes and women could still feel they were not being treated as equals. After the Civil War the Constitution was amended to give the vote to Negro men. In The habit of freely choosing their leaders was brought to Br.tain by the conquerors some 1,500 years ago.
