Suppose we were able to have all of the past legislators (and some current) from both parties who really spoke and worked for the voters and the country, would we be better off? With all of the negatives we have experienced from various members of Congress we should be smarter in voting, yet we are not! I struggle to remain as neutral as I can in politics but the past political climate from pre-civil war until now has shown me that the political parties fail regularly, it comes down to who fails the least or causes the least harm to voters. Flexible voters should be our goal-not locked in parties.
The success of a country depends largely on the people being engaged in the election process by a reasonable knowledge of what their elected officials are doing on their behalf. We have all heard, seen or experienced political rallies that promise actions and fail to deliver. Denigrate their opponents to get votes and still do not deliver! It ONLY takes a little more reading or listening to several news sources for a realistic view of what is happening in our daily lives. Politics seems to have two primary effects on those who run for office and win, they either go high or they go low each extreme land on the heads of the voters. This constantly moving event causes irrational voting and understanding of what is being done leaving the door open for misinformation and division between voters according to their place in life.
I am sure everyone who looks at any news has seen or heard any news understands (or should) that the current administration is corrupt and dishonest. We all marvel at how people we elect (some of them) go into the office poor (so to speak) and leave well heeled. Prime examples: Mitch McConnell, Mike
Madigan. The dailies on the current Presidiot are jaw dropping! Truumpel went into the office a mere Millionaire (if we are to believe him) and is now in less than a year is a billionaire! Congress has said nothing or done nothing except chase down Dr. Anthony Fauchi. Voters have the power to end it
