Politics and Such
Wikipedia does not offer anything good for politics, so I will just have to wing this one. Some people view politics as a "sport", but I, myself, view it as a nuisance. I am glad that the election is over for a couple of reasons.
1. The only thing that airs in between shows are mean and cruel advertisements about people in the election.
2. Politics becomes many people sole conversation, and politics can be a little overdone at times.
There are, however, a few good things about elections. I am very grateful that we are given the opportunity to give our opinion and vote. Voting is something that different groups of people have had to work for over the past few decades. I will not comment on the outcome of the election because I do not want to step on anyone's toes by giving my opinion. I will, however, say that all of the people running were qualified so whoever won was fine by me.
I am very glad that the election is over, and I believe that everyone who was elected will do their best to better our country. Unfortunately, there are some problems that even Chuck Norris would not be able to fix in our country. Great job to everyone who was able to vote, and seized the opportunity that many people in other countries have to work for.
