As Election Day gets closer the campaigns for president are getting that much more intense. Politicians are spending more and more money to tell us that they know best and we should vote for them.  They buy commercials and take long trips to make big speeches telling us why they are the perfect choice.  I, however, wouldnt vote for any of my current options for president, and there are three simple reasons why.

The Super Bowl has come and gone, and so has the 2011 football season. Although team practices will not start until May and the actual season will not start until September, “Tebow Time” is far from over.

Tim Tebow, the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, seems to be one of the biggest names in professional football right now. If people do not follow football, they at least know Tim Tebow as, “that one football player who loves Jesus.”

Almost everyone at Kish is of legal voting age. My question to you readers is this: do you actually use your right to vote?

To be completely honest, I never have. I have never been the right age to vote in the Presidential election, but I have been for the elections of the local legislatures.

Politics never interested me. All I saw it as was me picking which person can screw things up slightly less. I tried to watch political debates but all I saw was a bunch of finger pointing and no one actually coming up with solutions to the problems presented.
