Meanwhile. . ..

Sam Smith -  One of the strange things about the political messages I read every day is that a typical candidate is far more interested in getting me to give them money than in describing the causes they support and their reasons why.  It is as if politics has been reduced to individual fund raising rather than broad reform and positive change.

Even candidates I plan to vote for leave me wondering what they actually plan to do if they win. It’s as though politics has just been turned into just advertising and makes me wonder whether our past progress would have been possible with the present crowd of candidates.
