Upcoming Election

I don't know about everyone else, but I will be glad when the election is over. I really don't care who becomes president as long as he does a better job than George Bush. As you can tell I'm not a Bush fan in the least. I feel that he won the election by illegal means with the votes from Florida and just like his father, he enjoys sending us to war. I find it ironic that when Clinton was in office, we didn't worry about any war. I feel that our country thinks it's a Big Brother to the World. Every time another country has a disagreement then the U.S. wants to step in and assist. There are two problems with that way of thinking. One is that the other country usually doesn't want our assistance. The other is that when we try to help all we do is make it worse. I wish the U.S. would concern themselves with U.S. issues and let other countries handle their own problems. Another example that always bothers me about the U.S. is the commercials about the starving children in other countries. Trust me I'm not heartless and my heart goes out to those families. The problem I have is that the U.S. acts as though only those countries have starving children and therefore, neglect the starving children here in the U.S. Look at all the homeless children that are living on the street either alone or with their family and I haven't seen one commercial addressing their needs. Anyway, back to what I was saying about the election. It is like what I told one of my friends the other day when he asked me why is Louisiana politicians so corrupt. I told him that to be a politician in Louisiana or anywhere involves them being corrupt to a certain extent. But that is just my opinion.
