Presidential Debates
After watching the presidential and vice presidential debates I saw that both candidates had a lot to say and also a lot of things they wanted to clarify. The vice presidents were there to also state the goals as well was the achievements of both parties. In these debates they were stating a lot of things that are going on in our country now, how they could make a change, and how they would be better than the other candidate.
They were talking a lot about the main issues going on, like health care, education, taxes, the war in Iraq.
Both of them had something to say.
Obama was very dedicated to expressing how important health care is to the people and how he would help people get it.
He also talked about the education of the people in our country and how people need it.
They both talked about how the taxes are not doing a lot of good in our community, and how they both want to change that. Then they both talked about how one or the other supported these things , they would just attack each other trying to make the other look bad in the eye of the public. That what debates are about they, are where people argue their side on a certain topic(s).
For the war in Iraq they both had their own opinion Obama wants to bring back the troops and MCcain says to leave them there so that they can finish the job that we started.
People agree with different things i guess you would just have to see the different perspectives that people have.
These debates are different to the ones that happened years ago, where they would last up to 3 hours and each person spoke for 90 minute instead of 90 seconds. I think in the debates back the the candidates had more time to talk and express the way they view the situations at hand. Now they only get a short amount of time to speak and they always seem to get cut off in the middle of their explanations. I think that the debates always help people see a little bit more of what the candidates are about which is always good.
