Mid-Term Elections Thoughts

With the 2016 mid-term election coming up I thought I would talk a little bit about how they are campaigning via social media. Election time brings it all the media to persuade people to vote for their candidate. We get phones calls, see commercials, and now with social media get ads for them. We see some type of election propaganda 24/7 during election time.

With social media you get ads on your YouTube videos. See posts on Instagram about the candidate and what they stand for. You see stories on Snapchat about what they are going to do when elected. To be honest, I completely hate these election campaigns, but I know usually candidates get more votes the more they put out there. The problem with these commercials and ads, to me, is that they try to make the other politician look bad. I would rather have a politician that just wants to tell people about what he will do. Let the other politician make mean commercials and make him look like a bully.

I just want election time to be something that brings the nation together. Not something that divides the nation due to our political views. I also don’t like campaigning everywhere I go, like can we stop calling and sending out polls. I honestly don’t want people to know who I vote for because I feel like people stereotype to much due to your party. We are all humans and we all have feeling. None of us are free from sin and none of us are going to be perfect that is why I just want someone that is trustworthy and honest with their supports. Well that’s all I have to say about that, get out and vote.
