I am not much for politics. So, don't get mad at me for any of my opinions. It would take so much research to actually scatch the surface of the canidates true agenda and motivations that you could put in a full forty hour work week and still not be clear on who these people really are compared to who they want you to think they are. And with all the negative campaigning, I start feeling like I am stuck in between a fight between some middle school girls. And it is hard for me to believe that my vote really counts, when the person I had chosen to vote for won the popular vote but was still ousted by the Senators' votes, and the spoiled child of an old American president took the reigns.
Where is the hope when you cannot take a person for their word, and all you have to go on is promises? I find it in Chelsea Clinton. She has seen all sides of the political life and, in my opinion, has the potetial to be Amerca's first woman president. If George W. could do it, then Chelsea should be a shoe in!
