Clearly, every responsible voter within the United States of America needs to see and understand the political positions of each and every candidate. They should also want to know which issues are the most important issues that each of the candidates intent to fix or resolve for the good of, "We People of the United States of America." For that reason alone, I would most certainly like to see as many presidential primary debates as possible.

You see, the more debates there are, the more questions are asked in total. Each group that sponsors such a debate does have its unique questions, in regard to the people who are members of that group. Those groups include Labor Unions, the NRA, veteran organizations, religious groups, news media and any other special interest groups that are truly concerned about the what the next President of the United States of America will do for the majority of the people within each of those groups.

There is another reason why the candidates should be asked so many questions and appear in so many debates. That being, they could be caught lying or simply run out of pat answers that were provided by their campaign managers. There is also the possibility that more people will see each of the candidates and then have a better idea of who they will select to hold Public Office. People will, or should, have a better idea of the candidates' position and the Party Platform for each of the political parties that choose each of those candidates. The voter can also decide if that candidate is or is not truly supporting its party platform.

Generally speaking, the candidates do favor the people or groups who do contribute money to the candidate's campaign. Are rich people destroying your life? Well, that where most of the money comes from and we end up voting for the person who we believe will obey, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, in spite of the special interest influence that effects the winner's behavior in our behalf.

Like it or not, those groups also contribute huge amounts of money to the candidates and Party who they support. Then again, what would you like the next President of the United States to do for you? If you agree with most of one of the candidate's political platforms, then you should make your choice known by voting for that candidate.

Such huge donations of money leads me to believe that whoever wins is under the influence of the power of big money. That kind of behavior is nothing more than being a paid for "Yes Person" for those largest donors. To me, that's nothing more than political corruption and such corrupt politicians should be removed from our Government.

Who did you vote for in 2008? More important, who did you vote out of Public Office in 2008?
