Presidential Debate


Presidential debates are so hyped up to be so miraculously incredible, jaw dropping, the determining factor amongst undecided voters, when in actually, it is a simple act of "play the likable figure" and remain"civil" disposition. This is a bag of bolony because there's nothing more irritating than saying lies. The truth is what should come out of these candidates mouths instead of the half-truths which turn out to be more seriously conspicious than the whole truth. It is unbelievable how the whole "likability" question is more serious than substance. It's like saying a cnadidates mannerism when talking, the way they move their hands or the times they look at the audience, is what voters look for. What kind of dumb voter would that be?

People who vote for a candidate because he simply "didn't laugh the whole time" during vicepresidential debates, which was part of Biden's "un-likable behavior" and because he doesn't "speak right under the other guy's nose" is such a bogus answer. Why would anyone vote on a president solely based on how they behave instead of what they have to say?If it comes down to what they have to say you'd be surprised at how much time they spend talking rhetoric, hypotheticals and statistics that are so distracting. Talk ideology! That's the difference between Romney and Obama anyways. People don't want to listen to endless numbers and figures that make them confounded. They need to hear about the record, and about what the actual path America is heading towards is. There is no denying that the Democrats and Republicans have completely different ideologies. But it seemed as if one uses the other to tame themselves into acting like "moderates" in order to collect all of the undecided voters out there. This is a lie. They are not "moderates". Why would you even try to act moderate in the first place?

It is also so ridiculous how they are afraid of fully attacking each other. this is a debate. t's what makes debates exciting: to know you are not shaking the other's guys hand because you are forced to. They should behave like their honest selves- scream if they have to make their point across or do something besides fake smiles and fake responses. But one can lie as much as they want to. But, in the end, the truth is always conqueror.

  1. The irony in how you wrote this is that you stated that there was a difference, but I honestly have no idea which side you're talking about. If that was your intention, very nicely done.
