Presidential debates are frustrating to watch
Personally, I hate keeping up with politics. There’s too many things said that people don’t mean, too many underhanded statements, and too many people trying to get ahead.
Regardless, because I am a registered voter, I decided to watch [part of] the last Presidential debate. Needless to say… I couldn’t even watch more than 10 minutes without getting fed up.
Neither of the candidates can answer a straight question!
All I know is that from a brief look at their records, and listening to their ideas, I just don’t agree with Obama on very many things at all. While I don’t totally agree with McCain either, most of his ideas are closer to what I’d be looking for in a President. (Can you guess who I’m voting for?)
Regardless of who wins, I am very down-hearted for our future over the next four years.

Americans are politically self centered
I think that we as Americans feel so self-empowered that we forget how much we are influenced by the people in power. We forget to respect (out of fear) the ability of our leaders to manipulate us. People don’t get into positions of leadership by luck. They get into those positions because they are smart, and know how to make their way through and above the crowds.
