Do Politicians Really Represent the People?
Last week, Good Morning America's political analyst, Mr. George Stephanopoulos, said that Senator Hillary Clinton voted against funding our troops in Iraq. While many Americans want to see an end to the war, they don't want to cut off the supplies that our troops need. Mr. Stephanopoulos revealed that Sen. Clinton voted this way for fear of reprisals from special interest groups, such as MoveOn. This is disturbing since legislators are supposed to represent the voters, and not special interest groups. It seems that our elected representatives have forgotten that they are obligated to represent the people. Maybe it's time we contacted our elected officials to remind them that our government should be a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
