How many times during elections of all kinds do Americans have to listen to and watch political opponents point fingers at each other and make claims about their opponents that may or may not even be true? Americans are sick and tired of all of the back biting and slanderous tactics that politicians use to throw at each other in order to gain ground in there personal campaign no matter what office they are running for.

Although this presidential campaign has not appeared to be as heavily laden with slanderous advertisements from one candidate to the other, there have still been some. Voters do want to know the bad judgment calls that politicians who are continuing the pursuit of their current office or are seeking a new office have made in the past, but what voters want to know now more than ever is what are their plans for the future if they are elected and how are those plans going to benefit us.

For too long we have been aware of how many politicians that we elect to an office of one kind or another end up using that office as a vantage point for themselves and their rich friends. We absolutely know how when once elected these politicians use lobbyists and ties to big companies to further themselves and those close to them. Being elected as a political official is a job these politicians already get paid to do by us and we expect them to be doing what benefits us as American citizens overall, not just themselves. If they are not going into office to help us, why are we putting them there?

There is hopefully going to be a new standard for politicians to have to live up to from now on. We want to know exactly what their plans are and we want to be able to see clearly the results of their actions in Washington and in small towns all across the country. Americans are going to have to be more serious about the people we are allowing to get into office from now on and it is up to us to make sure they do their job correctly once they get there. We have to stop electing politicians because they sound like they will do a good job and then when they get that job they forget all about why they were elected in the first place.

The only way we can make sure this happens is to demand that people who are seeking an office have clear and precise plans that we can all understand and not accept them just because they can give flowery speeches that sound good or because they brought out enough bad points concerning their opponents. We want them to tell us what they are going to do and then we want it backed up by real results that we can see and use in our lives.
