As a citizen your number one duty is to vote, but voting does not have much effectiveness to it, if the citizen does not understand what the politician stands for. Voting is only one half of what citizens have to do to make America united as one again. Politicians today either focus on what the people want to hear, or the politician’s own opinion. Voting used to be a private matter. In other words, people would not know who their neighbor would be voting for, but today everyone knows you are voting for. Citizens like to ignore the main issues going on in the world and focus on the irrelevant parts. Voting should be spoken/taught in both school and in the family, also while not being pressured by society to choose one politician that seems best
