Politics and the Presidential Election American politics and the upcoming presidential election cycle is reshaping America again. My question is, will people identify the need for real ideas and identify the need for innovation in America? This presidential cycle can be one of the greatest political cycles in our history due to the deterioration of American infrastructure and economy. Too many times in our country sadly money is the key to winning an election and in most cases the wrong person is elected just because they have money. Money, popularity, and the need for change are the main topics that are at the forefront of all presidential elections each year; are they the most important topics to discuss? The first point I am going …show more content…

Popularity can be a very vicious word that can be bad or good during an election cycle. I get very tired of just because a candidate has more popularity they are the one that wins the nomination to run for president. Popularity alone cannot win America’s battles unlike what most people think, it is not the answer to our problems. America needs a person with true patriotism and will bring honor, sacrifice, and respect to the highest office in the land. The office that hold dear to my heart and the office that my family has served under for eleven years in the navy. I can only pray that the American people will have a true patriot in office for the next four years and may it not be a …show more content…

I get sick and tired of candidates saying, “America needs change or change is coming to America” because I believe if it is not broken then do not try to fix it especially it is running just fine. The American economy is the best economy in the world and it deserves to have a great president to budget and oversee it. The last eight years has been budget less and a cancer to the American economy and the American way of life due to the fact that there has been no balanced budget passed. Change is not always the right thing because that is what the American people were promised during the last election cycle and all that it has gotten America is change for the worse not for the betterment of the

As citizens we tend to elect our leaders, especially the president, based on promises, reputation, and life decisions. When voting for the next president of the Unites States we are simply voting for the person whose character we like best. Their promises and platforms reveal what they believe in and their statements and arguments reveal what they truly stand for. For the citizens of the Unites States character is a extremely important factor in determining who they vote for because character reveals the personality and beliefs of the president. However we must acknowledge that Presidents are also human and they make personal decision due to what they see best for them and not the rest of the country.

Historically, throughout every presidential election the state and atmosphere of the country shifts; whether it be towards a negative or positive direction depending on the, subjective, perception of the citizen. In the United States of America, every four years, a new presidential candidate is chosen, through such, arguably life-changing event, the epitome of what a democracy looks like is showcased and performed for the world.

Throughout history it was obvious that the key to a good presidential campaign was a good slogan. Each election year something new and unseen came up about the candidates that made them increasingly entertaining, and occasionally impactful. From mud slinging to parades, from taunting to ignoring, each political candidate had an interesting year that is left down in history for all to wonder about what they were thinking. Tippecanoe and Tyler Too (William Henry Harrison 1840) This crazy slogan is actually incredibly influential.

We must keep in mind that every presidential election since the 12th Amendment was added in 1804 has been running accordingly to the rules of the Electoral College. Even though it may be known to be an “outdated and undemocratic framework” as mentioned on a newspaper article found on dailynebraskan.com—changing the rules to a complete new system will change the game. If the Electoral College has made it this far I believe it is for a reason—because it has served to elect forty-four presidents, many of them good, some great, and only a few disasters. It has ultimately created the balance we need in our political order. And l could not agree more with what Gary L. Gregg II said, “we should not gamble what we have in chasing after abstract dreams and ideological agendas.

I believe that, yes it would have an adverse effect on a presidential election because the more debates a democratic party or republican party has means that the public and other party members have time to learn about the candidates and the issues that candidate supports. For example if a person like Donald trump which is on the republican party goes outside to a lot of debates and shows he’s not afraid he could outshine his competition in debates and even win more votes over the democratic party that has its main runner Hillary Clinton at a disadvantage with less debate time. Yes debates influence candidate selection during elations because the person decided who to vote for knows the side they want, and they know what that candidate thinks

Barack Obama’s win for President in 2009 was a historical moment for the United States. His inaugural speech was much anticipated, because this was going to set the tone for his presidency. His speech told the American people that improving the economy is one of his priorities, but there were also other areas he would like to improve like healthcare and the education system. This was a speech that was meant to persuade the American public to take action for them to rise as a nation again, and for them to put their trust into him. His message addressed a couple of specific points like his gratefulness to the American people, the different crises America is facing, how America will overcome these crises, replying to his cynics, addressing the world, and then he reminded America again to be brave like they’ve always been to overcome the hard times (5 Speechwriting Lessons from Obama's Inaugural Speech, (n.d.).

The future of America is in the hands of this generation that is witnessing our once great nation disintegrate into chaos. The United States of America is supposed to be a place of freedom and peace, but now it is viewed as a country that is crumbling under the unhappiness of its own citizens. We should be viewed as a country with hope to lead the helpless out of misfortune. Abraham Lincoln once said, “My dream is of a place and time when America will once again be seen as the last best hope on earth.” The America that I envision will be seen as that last standing
