I do not like talking politics among friends, though I am going to slightly stray from this. I do not like people who say we need to replace politicians with themselves as a new option, because truthfully aren't they trying to become politicians and aren't politicians who we need in politics? If we needed an inexperienced politician who is a good business person would we not most likely want them on a city council or as a mayor of a medium metropolitan area? The last place I would want them would be as Governor of the largest populated State in the Union. I do not as well like people who belittle others to prove a point one politician to another and one group of society to another. Take for example those on welfare - are they truly the scourge of society? I think not and the former business person touting a change to the welfare system has damned these people as a group without consideration of circumstance. She should remember that though they are on welfare, they are cousins, nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, fathers and mothers of voters and they themselves are voters. As one who has had a difficult time in the past and utilized the system by way of food stamps and other state offered welfare programs (North Carolina) I can say that she is not receiving my vote in the state in which I now reside.
