I am not able to tell you the names of the men and women that are running my country, I can tell you the hot celebs of the month and whose dating who but I can’t tell you whose making decisions about my future. I find it sad that when we go to the streets, not many people are going to be able to tell you otherwise. Is it lack of schooling? Does our society really not put so much emphasis into knowing these things that that might be the reason why I really don’t know and really don’t care? Should I know what they’re wearing on a day to day basis..No! Should I know what type of schooling they’ve had or what their main focus in in our government, probably? Will I? Probably not.
Most of the emphasis our society puts on learning and knowing about stuff, is in the media. It is so much more interesting. I should probably care more, part of the problem, I think, is that our government doesn’t really do what they say they are going to do. The candidates spend most of their time telling the public how awful the other candidate is and no matter what they say, they don’t ever tell me HOW they are going to make their promises happen. Why don’t I ever see or hear about how our candidates are going to make my life better. I would like the candidates to take the important issues and tell me how they are going to solve the problems and make my life better. Makes me want to put them in the top seat and run my country. I don’t understand why that isn’t common protocol. How do these people get into office?
