It seems to be a lukewarm election for Chicago. Four years ago, Obama signs were everywhere, and just about every light post has his picture as he makes history.
Obama wins because he was better of the 2 candidates. There are actually other candidates who have absolutely no chance to win even a single electoral vote. Obama and Romney's approval ratings are always 50/50. This country is deeply divided. Obama just has little over 50% of popular votes... Half the country doesn't like him. Well more people don't like the other guy. He didn't even win the state that he was governor, and I wonder why.
However, I am scared that someone who don't even know where are Syria and Iran on the map be a world leader. I am scared that someone who thinks America should be best and dominate everything would be president.
It is unfortunate that the Republicans don't have a better candidate. Will there be one in the future?
Millions dollars spent on negative ads... American politics is becoming a joke somewhat. Millions dollars raised and wasted on losing candidates. That money could fill up the deficit a bit.
Now that Obama is elected... is he really going to raise tax on the wealthiest people? Or it will be blocked blocked blocked by dysfunctional Congress which can't agree on anything.
I wish I can find a candidate who is a strong global leader without having America dominate. I wish I can find a candidate who can really have working plans to fix economy and lower the deficit. I wish I can find a candidate who believes in the most fundamental block of human: the natural family.
I can't find a Mr. Right who can do it all, and I voted for the guy I believe is the better of the two.
