Well the election is now is the past and the numbers are final and being recorded for the books. There are things I like and dislike the election process. I have more dislikes are more today than likes at the moment.
Dislikes
1. The constant ads run on TV, radio, and in the mail. This year I add the social media to that list.
2. The lies and smear campaigns run by each party about their opponent
3. The Electoral College. Each state should have the equal amount or Population vote
4. The Debate. There should be one presidential and one vice president debate. Most people usually only tune in for the first and never really learn anything new from the candidates in the other debates that you did not learn in the first.
5. Every state should equal time with each of the candidates. States should not always go red while others always go blue therefore leaving the decision up to a few key states such as Ohio.
6.The television and media should always balanced and fair and not to mention unbiased.
7. The thoughts and opinions of the other countries do matter at all in a American election no matter big or small.
8. I hate voters do not understand the truth and vote on like.
9. In a race with sitting president voters need to look at the record without rose-colored glasses on.
10. I do like when when it feels like my vote did not count .- That is what I feel like today.
Likes
1.I have a voice no matter how small it seems like today
2. We are one of the first countries in history to have a system of selecting our leaders
3. Feeling of community when working a political party in my area to help elect leaders
4. Our choice is important
5. Love of this country
Today I am disappointed in the voting selection of many. This President did nothing but slander, lie and attack his opponent during the campaign. His record shows that he is a big spender, has record of high unemployment. He has continue to put our military in more and more jeopardy by not cutting spending and passing a balancing budget. He wants a bigger government in a time when government needs to be smaller. Obamacare is just costing us and our future kids and grand kids more tax dollars. Women may have equal pay but we have have lost more jobs in the past four years. I could go on and on. My simple question is why did voters believe the lies he spread while not paying attention to his record, and philosophy. Romney deserved a chance to change because he believed in American independence and strength.
In the next four years are not only going to be Obama's fault but also the blame will go on the conscience of those who voted to re-elect this president.
