US elections are coming near! by Barbora Misakova

Politicians are all the same. It does not really matter in which country do you live, they act in essence identically. Sometimes it also looks like it was not important which political party we have been voting for, as all of them are making us crazy. As one character from my favorite American TV series, Sex in the city has said: “The good ones screw you, the bad ones screw you, and the rest don’t know how to screw you.” And even though she was talking about men in general, meaning of this sentence could fit on politicians as well. Not very optimistic economic situation is one of the main topics and also one of the mostly used accusations from irresponsibi! lity. If you are not satisfied with today’s situation, you should blame President Barack Obama and Democrats. They are making time tougher, at least Republicans say so. On the other hand, before Democrats there were Republicans holding power in their hands, so it was them, who actually caused the financial meltdown and recession. These opposing and dueling arguments will be bothering us (well I wanted to say “you-Americans”) till November 2nd when election will show which message is believed. There is one thing, which in spite of all that hatred and mutual attacks makes me laugh – suggestion of each party, it is just them who are holding the key to future prosperity. I am asking: HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? Why is politician or political party holding the key to better future in their hands only weeks before the elections? And why (or maybe it is better to ask: HOW?) do they always lost it shortly after them? These questions will probably never be answere! d, but I will never stop to ask them again and again.
