President

Why do we have presidents. To keep the country under control of course. Well at least they are supposed to. Some former and past presidents are not doing a good job, well at their job. But that's just my opinion. The president is the one who is in charge, who keep our country running. We get a new president every four years, sometimes eight.

Politics

Politics are basically a bunch of people making decisions. They are making decisions like who will be the next mayor, governor, vice president, and most importantly president. There are many other things that follow under that list.

Beggining.

Politics. That word has different meanings to different people. When people here this word they may feel a certain way about it, they may be happy to hear this word or they could just absolutely dread this word. Names may come to mind for other people. Names like Bush, McCain, or Obama. Many different things come to mind. But some people may not even know what politics are, what they mean or just anything about it. So I have written this blog to inform those people about politics.
