These are the top 5 reasons (that I could think of off the top of my head) that we should be outraged by the current Presidential campaign:
5. All the buzz is about how much money has been raised, not how many votes have been won.
4. How much money is being spent to put on slick campaign events, make commercials, hire consultants and the like. This is at the expense of talking to real people about real issues.
3. Senators Obama, Clinton, McCain and many others have jobs. The people paying them are not getting their money’s worth.
2. Primaries are the bastion of political extremists. The far left and the far right choose the major candidates.
1. The founders of our nation are probably rolling over in their graves knowing how the political process has been hijacked by special interests, political parties, PACs and 527s. The electorate needs to demand a return to sanity in the political arena.
