2008 Elections - What to think?
I have been sticking to eduction only posts but I thought I would venture into a more thoughtful personal post today. I honestly have no clue what to think about the upcoming elections. I wish I could design the perfect candidate but then it would only be perfect for me. It is hard to tell anymore what to believe and what not to believe. Daily I hear promises of changing our economy, bringing the troops home, alternate sources of energy, healthcare issues etc, etc, promises, promises. If we could believe everything that the candidates promised the decision would be a whole lot easier but it is not so simple. I need to do my own research on each candidate and try to choose one that somewhat resembles a figure that I would like to see lead our nation. I found a great site on Wikipedia that talks about the 2008 elections and has links to each candidate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_election,_2008

I agree! I have no clue who to believe nor who to vote for. I can't wait for this election to be over with because I am already tired of hearing about the campaigns and seeing the ads for them. Thank you for the website, I will have to investigate.
I'm not sure what to think about the elections, either. It really is difficult what to believe. That's why it's called "politics". It's too bad that the world isn't a simpler place that would allow one "leader" to make everyone happy.
Thank you for information about the Wikipedia site, and the resources that they offer. I'm going to look it up as soon as I'm done posting this response. Did you watch the Super Bowl? It's was great to watch a football game, and even better to watch t.v. for a few hours without any political commercials.
