VLADIMIR PUTIN'S APPROACH TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Vladimir Putin is a very aggressive and ambitious leader of Russia and in y opinion that is between him and the Russian people. Every one seems to be suspicious about his comment pertaining to what he sees s the decline of the Russian empire. i think Vladimir Putin is some what of an opportunist and not quite what everyone is making him to be. He is running a country that is sitting on a lot of oil and gas and the only thing we have to do is live with that reality. We have all live in a world where people fro all background with ambitious pursue these ambitions regardless of the cost to mankind. The politics is intense and some of us feel like jumping ship but the reality is the world will not run short of ambitious people with a lust for power!

THE RIDICULOUS SPECTACLE OF AMERICAN POLITICS

The political scene in the U.S has become ridiculous and less engaging about substantial issues. Regular citizens and voters have been sometimes described as stupid by the same politicians behind the scenes. The issue is how did the politics get to this point. I remember Obama bringing in a new coalition and crowd of voters to the process. But even Obama could not keep them engaged constantly and it seems like they only come out and vote when Obama is on the ticket and then go back to their regular life. I think that is a problem and it is good the President has expressed his worries about this trend. The short attention span of people in the country sure isn't helping with a situation that needs serious attention. At least when we look back we can say Obama tried to get the youth engaged in american politics. I hear a lot of stories about discontent among millenials about the economy and other issues. But the fact that millenials helped elect the president should have assured this generation about how powerful their voices and votes can be when it comes to politics. There is a saying that young people are the future generation and this is true because when you think about it they are the very people who will occupy the corridors of power someday. The recent midterm elections once again underscored the problem in turning out for both election cycles to make  an impact on the political process. Do not expect congress to work for you when you refuse to come out and vote. Once again the president was disgusted that only a third of the electorate participated and two-thirds just sat behind and watched. The president at least continues to express a genuine concern about lack of participation and low turn out in the political process which is a good thing for now.
