As a political commentator aka blogger, I've always said that I blog in order to get my points across about Israel and other political issues.

To convince someone of something, you have to get to them before anyone else gets them, because few people are willing to admit that they had been mistaken.
Four years ago, before the previous American Presidential Elections, there was a great excitement. Many people really believed that Barack Hussein Obama could change the world, make it, especially America better than it had ever been. I'm not exaggerating. Obama won by a landslide. But during the past three years, since he has been at the helm of the U.S. A. things haven't improved by much. According to the polls, some people have noticed, and others haven't. And some people think that he needs another term in office to successfully activate his plans to change America for the better.
The people I've heard speak politics all have different opinions. None are interesting in changing them. I don't say anything to anyone who probably doesn't agree with me. It's the safe thing to do.
