Political Science

I hate american politics. Simple, and blunt. I dislike almost every aspect of our politicians how they use our political system. Politicians are so called speakers of the people, yet they continue to think of themselves and their reelection. Whilest watching President Obama today give a speech in order to elect Martha Coakly for MA Senator, I realized my hatred. It was not watching them that made me rage so bad at this profession that plagues our nation, but the entire aura and essence of it. These people spend day and night thinking for the nation and how they can get themselves reelected, because without their position they would be out of work.

So yes, I must admit I am pretty dimwitted in the area of politics, but I can say that I dislike the people who choose their career as a politician. The biggest reason for this random spawn of hatred is the concept of reelection. Sometimes what is best concept for their reelection is not the best for the people. Maybe what I consider a 'great government for the people' is different then what we have. I do love how the american government works, but it is not worken right. It is merely mob rule with two mobs, the reds and blues. If you arn't one, you are clearly the other, and therefor my enemy. I fail to understand why in US history there has always been multiple political parties. Imagine what could happen under just one?

When you are only given a few years with a house majority, they want to pass as many things as they can in their favor. I am so strong against this, and feel it is unfair. The men who think for our country are rather rash and rushed into important decisions. When your team is pulling for something, obviously you arn't going to be a sqaure and go with the bad guys on it. It is not land breaking, it is not extraordinary, it is not phenomenal. It is merely luck that they were able to pass something when half the country is against it.

If I was put into the position of changing these concepts, I would have no idea what to do with them. I think that these decisions for a country as a whole should be given to the country as a whole. A Representative Democratic Republican is a joke. When they created it, they were scared of Mob Rule occuring in the people, yet it has only occured in the representatives. We need some new inspiration in my opinion.
