I don't think that religion should be used to get votes. People say what they think is right and try to play it down the middle as far as possible in all the things we have heard because then you get both votes, not just the one that you support, but the one that both sides of the voting people support, so to get real answers out of them you would need to be an undercover cop with a wire asking them questions when they are very angry, so as to avoid this lulled middle path they are walking.

Religion and politics, what are they to do with one another? We have religion for people that feel they need to get in touch with God, and also to compliment cultures of the world with more input from it. Is this a personality quiz? Why waste time finding out what the candidates think about religion when you have in all honesty seeing the system of religion change as much as nothing - there aren't going to be any notable changes to religious tidings here, as it works out for the majority. This is another one of those things where people want to get in touch with the candidates and see what they are liking and disliking, like a interview with a celebrity from People magazine. It is pointless.

Now what they said was that they want to see things not change, but people are voting for change. You hear it all the time from Obama, that he wants to change things, but can you see him changing any of the things that they discussed, except for the thing about decreasing the debt of the nation? How will that help anybody, they will still be able to borrow the same from the banks, so that will affect them very little. When people hear change they see their bank loan ability going up, their standard of living going up, so on. I don't think there will be a lot of change, excpet for the withdrawal from Iraq. Just how are the changes going to help the litle people, as I can see them helping the government more than the citizens.


Poison for the system!
