Presidential Debate or Fist-a-Cuffs?
Posted on 07. Oct, 2008 by Editor in Hot Topics, Politics
It has been a long tradition that the Presidential Candidates debate the issues that are effecting our nation and offer (with the knowledge they currently have on the topic) their solutions to the problems. It gave the American people the opportunity to hear the potential candidates – side by side – as they challenged the issues.
But in today’s world of billion dollar campaigns, and vicious mud-slinging can the candidates say anything that is even relevant to the issues? And it makes you wonder – if these are the kind of tactics that they as citizens of America treat each other in “any effort to get ahead or get what they want” to what degree would they use smear tactic campaigning as President against another nation – perhaps not a friendly nation – in order to get what he wants?
All the American People are hearing lately is what the other candidate can’t do, didn’t do, won’t do, lied about, covered up, changed their mind about, etc…
Americans do not need to have that kind of leadership! What America needs is a leader who can rise above the garbage (regardless of what is being said) and focus on the real issues. Tell Americans what you can do, how you plan to do it, when do you expect it to get done & how much money do you think it will take. Forget what isn’t being done – let us know what you are going to be doing.
And what about the other Presidential Candidates? Why are they being shutout from being heard and expressing their views and how they would lead this nation if elected? There are other choices – is there a candidate who will lead with integrity?
