I 'll admit it, I'm not very politically savvy, but that doesn't mean I don't care about Government and how it affects peoples lives, etc. But do you (D's or R's) think that by B. Obama asking how to get people more involved in the democratic process on Y!A is a very clever ploy to guage what issues he thinks a cross section of Americans want to see changed or implemented? This is exactly what politicians do. They pretend to really care about the average American (when will we start to see them holding babies?) and try to act like they are on our side and want to make changes, but then, nothing ever really changes. We still end up with D's & R's fighting and squabbling over the same old issues. I guess my question is why should we trust ANY of the politicians? And yes, I do believe that America has the best system in the world for the democratic process, I just can't shake this feeling that they are all liars (politicians) and that its a waste of time and energy to get involved.
