Political Agenda

Guest written by our friend Trent Horton

With extended programming on direct tv deals southgate, people across this county can stay informed in regards to what will surely be an colorful political race to the White House. As new presidential hopefuls come and go over the course of the next few months, it is interesting to see the true agendas of each candidate. All party lines aside, I found myself wondering if there are any candidates who are truly concerned with the well-being of our country. At face value, every candidate claims the country’s best interests are being kept in mind, but are any of these claims more than glorified lip-service? If you watch these people on the campaign trail, you start to see the platforms and promises change to cater to the intended audience. The speech patterns, vocabulary, topics, and even the attire changes as these hopefuls travel the nation campaigning to various groups and locales. Do demographics rule the platform, or is there any genuine truth in the agendas of those that will rise and fall in the race for the presidential campaign?
