Do you think this has something to do with the way the internet and the news influences people in this time?

The people that should be running are people who put the citizens first and themselves last. However, the scandals are important to bring up when discussing whose hands the future of our country are in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409203774253961958.post-26928705430044345642016-11-08T12:54:43.275-06:002016-11-08T12:54:43.275-06:00I agree that politics have become more about expos...I agree that politics have become more about exposing the atrocities of each party's opponent rather than arguing how they, themselves, will help improve America. It is frightening to think that either one of these candidates, who worries more about bashing their opponent than the well being of our great country, will be named our president in under 24 hours.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5409203774253961958.post-62438649290885403752016-11-08T12:02:57.569-06:002016-11-08T12:02:57.569-06:00I agree with you that politics has taken a downwar...I agree with you that politics has taken a downward spiral in the way that campaigns are conducted in this past election; but some of the examples you mention don't quite work for me. Every president has had scandals, the scandals themselves aren't the issue but more the unprofessional way in which they are addressed. You also said something about politicians shouldn't change their views - isn't that what you want though? A politician who is willing to adopt a stance that will serve the largest group of people, and if they realize their views aren't doing that, they change so that they can support a larger population?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
