Americans... help me understand your voting minds Sidious Send a noteboard - 04/09/2012 07:19:54 AM

While following the political threads on this board and watching some youtube clips regarding the various candidates, I was just wondering about the following.... (Please share your experiences)...

1. The candidates almost undoubtedly market 'change' as the reason to vote for them. I will change this, I will get America where it should be. Do you believe them?

2. Do the candidates deliver? Is there a President in your lifetime who has delivered and really made you glad that you voted for him? Or is it all the same old until they get into the White House and everything remains pretty standard.

3. Does the candidate matter that much to you or do you vote for a party and their policies most times?

4. How is the quality of your leadership changing? Are your leaders better or worse than 20 or 50 years ago?

Thank you
