Recently I began noticing commercials that I don’t remember ever seeing in Utah. They are trying to sway my vote in the upcoming Democratic presidential primary election next week. Both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are telling me that if I vote for them, they are going to change things in Washington. Republicans like John McCain are also saying that they’ll bring change.
Change can be good. It can also be bad though. If I go from being a free man to wearing a prison jumpsuit, that’s a change. It’s not a good change though. I never thought I’d say this, but I agree with both Hillary and Obama; things in Washington need to change. However, the changes that they are proposing, in my opinion, aren’t necessarily good. People are assuming that if major changes happen in this election cycle, those changes are going to be for the best. I strongly disagree.
