Ten days and counting.

In ten days, voters from all over the country will go to the polls and select a new president. Whomever we select as a nation, the pick will be historical. Will the country see its first African-American president or first female vice president?

Only time will tell, ten days and counting to be exact.

The next president of the United States is going to have a challenge, with the state of the economy, two ongoing wars and a host of other reasons. Some have called this the most important election in history, but isn't there a group of people who make that claim at every election?

One man in the election is promising change and inspiring it in millions. His opponent has spoken of change but has done little to inspire it, even bragging about his history of voting with President Bush 90 percent of the time.

For all the differences these two men present, and there's a lot of them this election year, this election will be decided by one thing: are Americans happy with the way the country is being ran, or do they think it's time for a change? A vote for McCain is a vote for the current government, a sign you'll happy with the way things are being ran in this country. McCain's been a senator longer than I've been alive. His history as a politician has long been documented.

A vote for Obama is a vote for someone untested and unproven, who speaks of brining unconventional change to Washington, D.C., with him. Only time will tell if he can be successful, but first he'll have to be elected. He's a junior senator from Illinois with four years in office, with almost half of that time spent running for president.

Will voters vote for someone with a track record they can see, or someone who shows a lot of potential without a track record? With McCain, voters know exactly what to expect, with Obama, his success will be decided on his ability to pursue Congress to see things his way.

Whoever voters chose Nov. 4, they should have no doubt in their mind for who they are voting. This election seems to have started the day after the 2006 mid-term elections, or a short time after. There has been thousands of stories written about both men, a series of debates that put the two head to head and both candidates have their own Web sites, biographies and message of what they will do once in office.

Anyone who feels they don't know enough about the two men to make a decision between them hasn't been trying hard enough. In fact, it's probably harder to not learn anything about them in today's 24/7 news cycle than to do so.

In the next ten days, I am going to present my own coverage of the election, and not just the presidential one. I'll have stories from variety of places, with a couple of more in the works.
