The Trouble with Politics in America

With the election year fast approaching and primaries starting in a few months, politics will soon be in our face at every turn we take. Annoying signs scattered everywhere, creating a garage-sale frenzy littering every corner. Yard sale spectacular displays of candidate hawking. The most difficult part is trying to figure out who really is the best candidate?

The biggest problem is the biased control of politics today--the media! It used to be you could turn to a newspaper to see the facts, and today if it's a train wreck, (unless the conductor was a family member of the newspaper), you can expect a pretty good, straight forward report. Not true in politics. Newspapers, television and radio, the biggest media outlets in the country are all in somebody's pocket. CNN is so Hillary obsessed, they make it appear she won every vote, made 100 on every test, and has already won the election. If she screws up (which is often) they spin it like she just saved your grandmother from jumping off the bridge.

The trouble with the news, is that, well--it's no longer the news! It has now become their agenda. Each paper in America has long strayed from the unbiased reporting of the facts. Now we read what the editorial board wants us to believe, not what is the fact. Ever wonder about the many polls that state the majority of everyone, anywhere, positively agree with their story? Only to back it up saying they actually know the percentage (usually always only .5 to 2%) of the margin they may have erred! The problem is, you have been discussing it all week and no one you have talked to, or ever met in your whole life, agrees with what they just reported!
