Being so close to the Election Day, it is easy to find a lot of polls on the perception that people have of the current situation of the country and how the President handles things. These polls are the reflection of what the average American feels and thinks about how the country is supposed to be managed. By analyzing a few of the polls, I think it is safe to say that to the unknown eye, it is very easy to one day just answer a few questions about your opinion on the proposals and results of a candidate or another. But what is really hard to do is to actually follow up, with what they are saying. What is the agenda behind what they are proposing? How will it benefit or affect you directly, and how you can help to make the situation better? Everyone has the right to speak up, but only the informed people are the ones who will be heard. Get informed, read about it, and form your own opinion. Information is the key to a good decision. The power of real change is in your hands.
