American party politics are a complete and total zoo, and personally I wouldn't have it any other day. I know that it is popular to despise American politics because of the partisanship, the corruption, and all the rest, but for me this is just what makes it interesting. The American political system is a fascinating world of intrigue, corruption, and valiant voices of truth crying out in the darkness.
Of course, the American Politics scene is nothing new. In America, things have been corrupt for well over a hundred years, and much of the rest of the world has been that way for thousands. Look at the politics of medieval Italian states if you don't believe me – you will see a culture of corruption and villainy which makes Our system look here as pure as gold by comparison
American Politics
Many people think that the American political landscape is heading for a sea change. Certainly, the seas will change eventually. When we are in a period of corruption like this, it is not easy to remember how it was at certain points in the past. Believe it or not, this country has had a political heyday – an era where conviction ruled over party loyalty and backroom dealings were not the end-all and be-all. Things will get that way again eventually, it is just a question of when and for how long. Until then, we can keep enjoying watching the brawling from the sidelines.
One of the most interesting, and most corrupt facets of American Politics is the influence of campaign donors and special interest groups on the policies of public officials. This is a well-known problem all over the world, but in America with our unique media savvy, it seems to be even worse than in most places. Following the money trail and finding the truth amid all the propaganda can be a full-time job for political bloggers in this country.
No matter how you feel about the situation in American politics, the most crucial thing is to stay optimistic and try to enjoy it. If you are a political crusader, enjoy looking for the truth. If you are a propagandist, make political stickers and buttons or write articles that will move people and change their opinions. Just because the system is somewhat corrupt doesn't mean that it excludes us completely. The key is to find your own place in it.
