Never vote based on popularity. The candidates may have given you a kindhearted and compassionate act that’s worth an Oscar award. Unfortunately, this is a major problem for most people in our town. At every election, some don’t have time or are too lazy to dig deeper about each candidate. It’s clear as crystal that this weakness of the voters is being taken advantage of by these traditional politicians, and/or candidates who have the resources to make the electorate feel special and being cared for through gifts. Note that politicians are also actors not because many of them come from show business. They know well how to deceive people’s needs and weaknesses. So please, never ever vote for a candidate just because of this temporary artificial
Ray Bradbury is known for using literary devices to present his protagonist with conflict. In Fahrenheit 451, Bradbury uses a lot of imagery and characterization to do so. He uses imagery to make you see everything that’s happening to the character. He uses characterization to attach you to the characters while they’re going through the conflict. Ray Bradbury uses imagery and characterization to make us see the main characters conflict.
Take two minutes of your life to learn about another option for the November election. I personally have no idea who I am voting for, I don't care who you are voting for, but I do ask you to take a few minutes and make sure you give everyone a chance and verify that their views co-inside with those that matter to you. If someone that you want to see doesn't make it on the November ballot, you can always write in their full legal name as to make your vote count.
Voting is very hard, especially for someone you really don’t know .It’s a thing called trusting and being determined. Instead of people voting for whom you like or that is popular go for what you know.
Stephen Medvic, In Defense of Politicians, discusses why Americans feel that politicians are dishonest. In 2007, a Gallup poll about honesty and ethical standards for occupations, showed that only 12 and 9 percent of people felt that Congressmen and State office holders held high standards, (Medvic p. 2). In addition, Americans tend to like their representatives more than the members of Congress because they view them as actual people. Americans view Congress as a group of politicians who are greedy and not representing their interests, (Medvic p. 4).
Today, career politicians are constantly looking for what will aid them in getting reelected. They become more loyal to their campaign fund contributers than to the people whom they represent. This increases the likelihood of having corrupted politicians in office, as they use the government as a vehicle to further their own career (Kurfirst, 1996, p. 123, 129). George Will, a well-known political journalist, was quoted as saying “[The] worst feature of professionalism in politics is that it obliterates the proper distance between the representatives and the represented” (Kurfirst, 1996, p. 125). Even James Madison agreed that legislators were meant to represent the people, not hold office as a career. In The Federalist No. 57 (1788), he wrote, “From this change of men must proceed a change of opinions; and from a change of opinions, a change of measures.” The lack of new faces in Congress today symbolizes that the American legislative branch is straying from its intended purpose.
Over the course of history, politicians have perpetually remain associated with the acts of greed, lying, and mischief. Portrayed in films, sung about and even written in novels. Even with the governments stern conditioning to keep the public believing in everyone remaining equal and treated fairly in court, facts presented over time have proven to show that politicians possess an upper hand. Elected officials and government workers are leading lives that one would call above the average citizen. Overlooking crime at the right moment if known to be an employee of high status. Many serious cases get a simple sentence, while everyday Americans can face far worse. The tangible get out of jail free card comes with a lifetime supply of justifications
Cost per vote is the main point of reference of how much a candidate uses to secure an office. But on the other hand, it is evident that some candidate learnt costly campaigns only to find out that vote’s difference is of low margin. This scenario hints that money does not always influence the final results. The cause of such
Getting to polling locations can be a hassle, especially for the disabled, the sick, and people without transportation. In addition, voting becomes even more difficult for
I feel frustrated when I see individuals who have gained national trust but have not taken office with the right intentions. Often times there are little men, such as lower income citizen who don't have a large political pull who get the short end of the stick. Sometimes theses officials are so powerful that society turns a blind eye on the small injustices that are being committed every day. These corrupt political moves can be
The politics is a stage for many different characters of whom each is trying to convince their audience to give them the loudest cheer and the grand applause. Politicians who played the acts will do their best and sometimes will do everything to win the hearts of their audience and that means to win at all cost. Politics involves money for it is the way to make campaign possible that is why there are campaign managers and campaign funds to whoever will run for any office in the government. Every politicians needs money or funds to support his or her candidacy in such a way that it will help them reach their constituents because it also requires money to get to them, to their homes, to their cities and to their
My first official voting experience took place during the Houston Mayoral Election of 2009. Unlike other voters—young and older—I developed a strong sense with whom and what I was voting for. Mayor Bill White proudly served the city of Houston for three terms and was tough to replace. I did my research on the candidates’ propositions and paid close attention to their campaign efforts. My parents are strong advocates about the importance of voting. They always lectured my siblings and me about how citizens determined who got into office and how they represented the community. “You had a problem, voice your concerns with your ballot,” my mom would always say. My father would often exclaim, “Don’t gripe and not vote. No vote…no room for complaints.”
With the current presidential elections approaching soon, there is plenty of political activity going on in our communities. Many people follow the presidential elections and listen to what these candidates have to say, however, there are other elections going on in our own communities that also have a big impact on us. We sometimes tend to forget about our local candidates and at times ignore what they have to offer for us. I, myself, am able to relate to this. I decided to take action and go out to a local community to do voter registration with the hope that people would not only register, but also go out on November 8 and vote.
Your vote makes sense of who will shape the arrangements of the country. today and the future. Occasionally people don't vote since they feel like their vote doesn't
Most voters have an understanding of a candidate's political views are and how they differ from the rest of the candidates. Most candidates picks the issues that are in the forefront of the political arena and describe how they are different from their competition. Economy is a big issue concern right now because people cannot seem to find work. If the incumbent is doing badly, the other candidate can tell the voters that it is time for a change. If President Obama does not get a handle on the economy soon and get assist people to get back to work, then he will not be re-elected for President in the 2012 election (Schmidt, Shelley, Bardes, 2011, p.196)
Voting is essential in choosing a leader for our country. Some people choose not to vote because they like neither of the candidates. The choices may not always be great, but as an American citizen we should choose the better of the
