I know its to be elected but its like false advertisement. Vote for me and I will solve all our problems which really never happens. Once elected, they push for their own agenda without acknowledging things prior to the win.What is your opinion?

Leftist candidates do this because their constituency tends to have short attention spans. Also, the media are heavily dominated by Democrats so no matter what they do, the media will cast them in a positive light.
Only FOX seems willing to look back at their histories and point out the glaring inconsistencies. No wonder the Left biased media gang up to attack FOX.
Leftists have always depended on the media to cover for them so the public would not be aware of their mischief.

That's not quite what happens. Often, candidates have one picture of what's going on while running for office, but once they get in office, that picture changes dramatically. Referring to this as a "personal agenda" is sort of simplistic. Often, they really do think they can effect change, but once in office, they realize that it's harder than they first imagined. And often, in order to do the things they want to do for the people, they have to sell out on some issues they consider secondary to what they want to accomplish.

I'd be interested in knowing which politician has preached socialism.
Real sociaslism, not the version people here thing it is.
There is no socialism in America, only one socialist in Congress (Sanders, I-VT) so it'll be interesting to see what I'm missing.

That's a politician for you. Most of them have huge egos and a thirst for power.
What's with all these wealthy Kennedys etc being so socialist? They could support a small country with their wealth, yet the want us to do it with our tax money.

Because the people haven't called them on it and made an example out of any of them lately.
