Proud to be an American - I dislike Politics



This particular post is difficult for me to relate to. I really do not like politics however I understand the importance of my opinion. Here in my hometown Baton Rouge we have a lot of debates going on around us. One particular is the issue between the creation of St. George parish becoming their own district limits. Another issue that is coming up this Tuesday is the election of the new Senate representative of Louisiana. I tried looking up some research to share with all of you but hey this election is everywhere. I see all the signs along the side of the road, adds on websites, commercials, those stupid informational calls that annoy me. All the information is everywhere.This election is important because it is up to us to choose who will represent us as a state to consider our opinions to make the right choices for us.
Ughh, as for forming a protest or some form of activism I don't think I would. There are already enough signs and forms of paid advertisement enough. What would a protest do? Everyone is entitled to their own opinions I wouldn't ask them to choose a side or to vote for whomever they want. I'm extremely neutral when it comes to these types of things. Speaking of; I just watched an  irritating commercial as I write this about Mary Landrieu. Even though I saw her commercial it has no effect to influence me to choose her to represent us.
Media and internet are so far advanced now it has made it easier to send out messages to influence others. That should be such a privilege to have to be able to reach out to more people than imaginable. Although, with media other negative forms of influence falsifying information for these elections.
I actually cannot wait for these elections to be over so that I will not have to see all the publicity madness going on for this occasion.   Again I am neutral to the whole ordeal.
