    As citizens it is our jobs to evaluate every candidate’s proposals so that we can determine which candidate has the “right” or “good” solution to the nation’s problems. Some voters focus only on the consequences of these potential policies while others focus on the consequences and other factors that influence the duties, rights, and rules of the people.

We have all experienced this longing - those situations where we wish for even the slightest nod or hint of attention from another person, a bit of acknowledgement for accomplished work. Recall the variety of thoughts that emerge in particular social situations or at a workplace: e.g., “first day of school, will I have any friends”, “wow she is gorgeous, I hope to talk to her”, and “will my boss notice my job well done and finally give me that raise?”…
