Geesh! All the foreign folks know more about the politicians than we do?
I wonder if they know which person should I vote for Pct.5 county judge?
I dunno. Mrs. Obama's speech, as good as it was, tried to portray the President as one of the people. Unlike Romney, who she thinks is out of touch with the population.
To be honest, I haven't seen a Presidential Election where the candidates, BOTH candidates are so detached from the American people, I wonder if they're even human. And the Parties. Forget about greens and libertarians.
Libertarians are republicans that smoke pot and greens are democrats that don't take baths. There are really only two parties. And both are controlled by special interests. Romney, for example, came to Houston and picked up six million dollars in campaign funding. 6 million dollars. Hell that's more than what the job pays for two year terms. And what did that 6 million go to? Advertising. The dems are no better. Not by a long shot.
You know, Rappa Z has a valid point. Who do you think an elected official is going to pay more attention to? The 6 million voters? or the guy he's into for 6 million dollars?
