Am I the only one that feels the urge to punch when they see stupid shit like a presidential candidate holding babies, playing sports, talking about family values and any other annoying "tactics" to earn popularity?
Bitch, I wanna see yo' ass waiting in line at the DMV like a normal person, going over bills and debts, shaking your head and sighing while you do so. I loathe obscure promises. I don't want to hear you say, "I will create more jobs, repair the economy, blah, blah, blah." I don't care about what you say you'll do, I want to hear logical reasoning and methods that will bring about these results.
Some of the current U.S. candidates are better than others, but that's just what pisses me off about the whole thing, the bullshit, the things that have nothing to do with helping a country improve itself.
I honestly don't like any of the candidates. I say we give Obama his second term. After all, we gave Mister Bush Jr. two terms. It's going to take more than two terms to fix the damage that genius helped bring about.
There, I'm done with that. I don't care where this topic goes, I just wanted to throw that rant somewhere.

Sadly most of the politicians nowadays runs for the money, not for the people or for the country. All those little tricks are just to get stupid (sorry but true) voters on your side to get yourself into the money. Only wish the voters like you would overcome those "stupid" voters.
This is how the "democracy" works:

Am I the only one who knew that Romney was going to win the nomination the moment I saw him? He's the best looking one and the richest. Everyone knows that seals the deal
I really hope Obama wins again. He's the best thing that's happened to the world in 20 years.
Saying that, I agree with Uzriel. Even more.. All politicians are liars, populistic and worms. But Obama is the least wormiest of them all

you should see "casino jack" with kevin spacey about the lobbyists thing
also, what monad said it's true. it's sad, but it seems that people are just stupid or braindead. it starts with education.
a good educational system will create a good economy with a good country, but with good education, there will be no opportunity for unfairness and jackasses.
so, some choose bad education instead, which will lead to even worse things and people being stupid and just caring about themselves because everything's so hard, they just got to care about themselves only.
and by education i don't mean intelectual education, like maths and biology and stuff, there's plenty of that and more than what we need. i'm talking about social education. everyone should have history and social studies from 1st to 12nd grade, regardless of their area.

Social education pluss understanding the importance of manual labor and abolishing ownership of the modes of production( which is owned by small number of people) would infact lead to something better:)

Wrong. Republicans are the least genuine from what I have seen and the party that is always accused of being out of touch and for good reason. There was a recent debate surrounding contraception and the Republican party showed how out of touch they were with the issues many Americans have to face. The issue was inflamed even further when Rush Limbaugh, on his radio show, called a Georgetown University law student a slut and prostitute.
