standards of behavior for politicians (dollars, party, financial, election)

[AONE]

It seems as election time comes it brings out the worse qualities in our candidates. They will lie and slant the truth about opponents.

Here is an example of what I think should be the expectation of behaviors we should have


YouTube - TV Spot: Enough

She doesn't even mention an opponent, simply what she believes in and what she finds important.

As I see the spot I find it hard to identify a party as she seems to just make sense.

Are we ready for a race without mudslinging? why don't we disqualify people when they mislead, lie or mudsling?

Because we don't ask the right questions.

I ask you, how many people ask a candidate to give their interpretation of the commerce clause?

When we the people demand answers to this, the less likely we are to get the other.

You might want to find a better example than Sink.

She talks a lot about accountability, but can't explain where the $61 billion dollars the SBA lost during her watch went. She was both Florida's chief financial officer and the treasurer of the SBA Board of Trustees at the time.

And, I don't know how you feel about bankers these days, but before entering politics, she was in charge of Bank of America's operations in Florida. Haven't we all had enough of big bankers running things yet?

One more thought: A few years ago, her husband ran for Governor and lost. Now, it's her turn to try. For some reason, that household wants to sit in Talahassee pretty badly. It's always a good idea to question why.

I did not know there was standards where Politicians are concern. They have a funny way of showing that they have any standards at all, some of them that is!
