As an analytical and logical thinker, I am more concerned with performance of a presidential administration here in the US, then I am of a popularity contest. However, a candidate who is well-liked, regardless of the reason is more apt to get elected, and also reelected. Much of this is branding, and a lot of it is planned, and I'd like to take a few moments of your time, and discuss our current president; Barack Obama. Perhaps you are wondering how on earth that guy got elected, or wondering if he even has a chance to get reelected based on his past performance in the White House. Okay so, let's talk.
Let me explain something that happens in American society, and let me give you a nice little flowchart here;
The Media Brainwashes the People The People Adopt That Information as Their Thoughts The President Reads This New View from the Teleprompter The People like the Populist President Because Now He Is Just like Them
It's all circular my friends.
Do you see the point here? You see, and I've done this before, but you can too - go ahead and watch all the major news stations one night, and then go to Starbucks the next day, and ask people how they feel about a current event in politics. It is so interesting, because you can tell by their opinion, the one they've adopted, as their own believe, and personal opinion - which news station they watched the night before.
In fact, they will give you the same arguments, the same sound bites, and relatively the exact same information. You'll be able to tell if they watched CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, or Fox News. Do you doubt this? You shouldn't, but if you doubt what I am saying here; go ahead and check it out for yourself.
Next, whenever you hear the president read something from the Teleprompter, consider that he is reading a prepared speech which takes into consideration social media, political polling, and how the media is spinning the event. Since political strategists know that the media is a very powerful force, they are very careful in positioning their views at the time along the same lines and opinions.
Since the Democrats all watch the same TV shows, and the Republicans have there's, it's quite easy to understand why even a socialist leaning president could be well-liked in the United States, a great nation with a history of freedom, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and free-market. It seems almost bizarre that the citizens of this awesome country would ever elect a socialist. But they did, and they may even reelect him, regardless of the reality of his previous performance during the last four years. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on.
