The election process and personal responsibility...these guys are jokes

This is not my resounding support for President Obama, but Governor Romney is a Mickey Mouse Candidate.  How the republican party continually puts forth these candy nominees is befuddling.  The Republican party has lost their way.  The Unites States is not an episode of Leave it to Beaver. 

Why is it so fashionable to let minimal resumes become candidates.  A two-year senator?  A balanced ticket governor?  When did being good with business become a per-requisite?  The country does not need to be ran like a business.  The military might of the leader of the free-world is not needing to be ran like a business.  Political leaders do not create jobs.  Political leaders need jobs and just like everyone else who needs jobs, will do or say anything to get and maintain them.  Hard work and dedication create jobs.  New businesses create jobs.  Investment in the market and in entrepreneurs create jobs.  Volatile policy  destroys jobs no matter the ideology.

Special interests of the disenfranchised do not dictate the whole of policy.  Human rights, and not biblical rights, are to be respected and that's that.  Equal rights and freedoms for all, period.  Those who do not work and contribute to this society do not deserve a larger share than they themselves are not willing to provide.  Banks did not fail because people act irresponsibly with their money.  Banks act like banks act, as with investment houses.  How about we pass laws that do not allow you to purchase a house without significant liquid capital?  How about we pass laws that do not allow you to have children if you are not able to suitably provide for them?  Didn't think so.  If political leaders won't enforce personal responsibility, why should anyone assume personal responsibility for the mess we are in.  Right, I forgot, it's wall-street's problem. 

For decades our elections are filled with punch-lines, and the citizenry is the joke.  Fact, an average of 53 percent of the total voting public votes for the president.  That 53 percent is split 51/49 on average.  Half of a half decides who becomes the leader of the free world.  Even less determines the congressional.  Disgraceful.

I'm sick of political motivations for immigration enforcement

The definition of legal or illegal has no bearing on the context contained within the immigration argument. Well, as far as I am concerned.  I imagine nations of tribes would have declared us illegal, but seeing as though they don't believe in land ownership, that renders that point moot. 

The areas where "illegal" immigration is most prevalent are areas that have always been majority Spanish/Mexican, which in our "divine authority" ( or our desire to protect ourselves via natural borders from the Spanish during the 19th century ) we saw fit to swindle and make war to obtain. "Illegal" is used to such political gain these days it's discomforting. 

I'm as staunch a patriot as there can be, and will allow the certain actions of my forefathers to stay in the past. However, to go on a political tirade about the injustices of "illegal" immigrants is to dismiss it altogether. This isn't a liberal/conservative thing its the just right of all proper Americans to duly respect the history of this country, and by decrying "illegal" your disrespecting the hardships  the natural born citizens of this land had to endure.  Love it or hate it, is a part of this nation's history.

In 2012 I fully support the removal of undocumented workers. the basis for this comes from human rights as non-citizen workers are not protected by the same workplace quality standards as standard citizen workplaces.  

I recognize the present dangers of un-checked borders. I also respect the fact that someone who is born here, is as much a citizen as my namesake fore bearers at their time of birth. The naturalization process is a joke and needs to be updated, but you don't need to police little kids around. When did we become an authoritarian state? 

All these political buffoons take great pride to go about great lengths in making us all sound like idiots. I'm sick of the lot of em. Human rights are rights blessed upon us at birth and I'm damn sick of some political motive tiptoeing its way around that in order to satisfy some extremest view. It's amazing to sit on top of the hill looking down, but i imagine if everyone would have the same views if they had to walk a mile in someone's shoes.
