Here We Go Agian
After what seems to be an endless campaign season we are about to divulge a winner. Elections have become increasingly passionate in the recent years and I believe that we will find this election the most passionate yet. It is our freedom of passion that keeps America a model country; however this election may prove our strength to be dangerous. Throughout my lifetime I have been witness to countless political debates and have come to my own conclusion as to the tension. It does not seem that in this day and age people are separated over the issues as much as they are separated by titles. The political parties where established to provide platform ideals that people can back with support, and candidates ran with those political ideals so people knew what they supported. Unfortunately it appears now that people are placing their votes in the parties without considering what may actually give them the best candidate for their needs. The party’s have also become increasingly divided and it may be our nation and its people that suffer. The generally two party systems inspire conflict and not resolve from both party’s causing competition and not cooperation. For a country built from compromise the two extremes are becoming unsettling and it may even be clear that whichever man wins this election approximately half of the people will be satisfied. Our country is in need of unity. There must again be compromise for the people and not for their titles. I do not believe that the system is in need of destruction but it is in need of revolution. It is the job of our government to provide for its people and providing compromise is the best thing that could be done now. It is wrong that no matter which man wins there are likely to be riots in the streets I was under the assumption that our country could be more mature. If our forefather were to stand today and see what turmoil is caused by this competition they would be hard pressed to recognize the ideals is such a bloodthirsty election. Ben Franklin the Compromiser would have never let this come to such extremes.
