SWOT Analysis Of The Presidential Candidates
I am sure that by now you are aware that we are having a Presidential election this year. If you happened to miss that news, a new debate is probably around the corner. But who do you vote for if you aren't amongst the political base? The decisions can be difficult, especially if you don't follow politics. All sides have their strengths and weaknesses. To make the choices a little bit easier, I have created a SWOT Analysis Of The Presidential Candidates. A SWOT analysis is a marketing term that is an acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Oppositions, and Threats. It is used in identifying different aspects of a business. You can do the same for these politicians and then pick who you think may be best. Read more...
Herman Cain Is Gone: So Who’s Left?
Herman Cain, the GOP Presidential nominee who was once the CEO of Godfather Pizza and made a rise to the top of the GOP race with his 9-9-9 tax plan has toppled. Amidst a series of sexual accusations that ran the gamut between a thirteen year affair with an Atlanta woman to several sexual harassment charges, Cain's campaign has crumbled into shambles. This, added with a series of gaffes and backpedaling has caused his Republican status to be redeemed and where he once was a potential for President Cain, he will have to live with being Citizen Cain. In the meantime, his family has been hurt, his reputation shattered and the chance for becoming the most powerful man in the world has slipped from his fingers. It makes one wonder, with all of the scrutiny that goes into becoming a public official, is it really worth it?
So, who's left? The Republicans will start dropping off like flies now that we are heading into the primaries. The fickle behavior of the American people have put many candidates to the top of the polls, but with a few comments, they have all fallen. Here's a look at the people still running at the top and some of the ideals and political policies they stand for. Read more...

The 5 Reasons Obama Is Going To Win A 2nd Term
Sorry Republicans, but I am going to make this prediction now. President Obama, no matter how much you hate him for any number of reasons, is going to be elected for a second term. How do I know this? Because the Republican party has no serious competition to run against the man. In fact, aside from Mitt Romney, the Republicans might as well save some money and sit the 2012 election out. The competition is laughable, at best, and I am not even going to include Sarah Palin on this list. She's passé when considering a presidential candidate. Does this sound harsh? Perhaps. But if the Republicans plan on getting any votes in 2012, they may want to reconsider who their leaders are. Here are some of the people you have so far. Read more...
