Both paties will tell you what they think YOU want to hear. since I've been a registered voter for many, many years, and now nearing the age of 60, I can tell you firsthand, all politicians are liars. they'll say anything to get elected, so they can pad their pockets, their special interest's pockets, lobbyists, oh, the list goes on. neither the republican, or democratic party has YOU, the American citizen in mind after being elected. besides, American Presidents are nothing more than figureheads, except for george bush jr., who is a dictator and war mongering fool. the 2 party system is extremely flawed. we need more Americans who can THINK for themselves, and elect a third party system who might have OUR hopes and dreams in mind, and think the way mainstream Americans think!
glen beck is probably the brother of dog the bountyhunter, or, at least in that same classification.
