Presidential Campaign

Have you made up your mind on who you are going to vote for? I know I haven't. It seems you see one advertisement saying that this guy is going to change this and that his track record is good. Then the next thing you see is another advertisement saying that all he wants to do is put us more in debt and is only out for him self. How do you know who to vote for? Why do they make it so hard? Why can't they just say what they stand for and this is what they want to do when they get in office and leave it at that. We can't do that because it is not just what they want to do for the country but also what they have done in their personal lifes that is up for view. I know we all remember President Kennedy with Maraline Manroe, and President Clinton with Monica Luinski. That is what those guys are remembered for the most. Why is that? Have we become so much into what people do in there personal lives that nothing else matters. I guess that is why I have never voted. I know that is sad, but I truely don't ever know who to vote for. When I think I know who I would vote for there is something that says the complete opposite of what I thought that person stood for.

Well this year it is Obama and Romney who is up for the vote this year. I have caught stuff here and there, but I really haven't followed anything. Like I said, when they go and speak all they seem to do is kick the other guy down. It almost seems like we are in school again. (This is just my opinion on how I see things.) I know they are in a race for votes but shouldn't they be trying to sell us on what they will try and do for us the people when they get into office. How they are going to try and turn our economy around? It is sad in a way to me. That it comes down to figure pointing instead of saying we are going to have to make some hard changes to make the economy better for the future. I would like to hear all the good things that they have accomplished instead of the bad. I really don't care what they have done in there personal life, because I don't think that is going to change how they will do their job.

This country is and can be a great country again. I think we need to stop pointing fingers at each other and try to fix what is broken. And all of the political parties to get on the same page instead of fighting each other. I personal think that the people from back in the day who sacrificed their lives for this country could see how it has turned out, would be kind of upset. I know I would. But that is how it has been for so long. Basically you have to have the money to win and people in your pocket. It is sad and just makes me wounder how the world is going to be 15 to 20 years from now. I hope it is still around for my kids and their kids. But the way it is going I don't know.

So what do you think? Do you feel the same way or do you think I am nuts? Everyone has a right to their opinion. If you are of age to vote, will you? And for the older ones who have been voting, do you vote at every election? Maybe you can give me some feed back on who you are going to choose and why?

Like I said this is just how I feel. By no means am I right or wrong.
