I interviewed Mr. Vargas Valentino, a friend
of my relative. He was known for his open and liberal views. Growing up in Florida Valentino was with the
conservative party; his dad political choice influenced him.
Valentino
was more conservative when he was younger. He said the more he started learning
about politics and getting into politics, the more he realized that he align
more closely with the left these days and that he is not sure that he really
grasped how things worked when he used to be conservative. However now he
consider himself an independent overall.His
principles and values stands more for the independent party he said.
Valentino
interview lead me to think about my own political party, I guess I’m a mix of
all of them, I believe in
abortion....disagree with the war, but still support the troops, don’t really believe
in same sex marriage....i care for the environment.Yes, I know hard to tell,
but still don’t know who I’m.
Life experience would
be the best way to find your right match. That was the phrase I heard from
Valentino, I guess he is right.
Voters look for more choices, and less lies in the candidates. I think people are looking for a trustable
figure that improves their life. Ex tax cut, sex marriage.
Every one stands for
better economy, less wars, and more jobs. But I feel that Politic is a big game
of power to hold domination over the weak.
The very definition of politics tells
us the truth! In Bertolt Brecht's words: 'Sitting on their cozy thrones, and from
there issuing commandments to rule the world.

Jalila,
ReplyDeleteGood blog, but it seems a bit rushed.
I am glad that you completed it, though, as this assignment is 10% of your grade.
Be sure to include at least 2 pictures for each post.
I like the conversation that you included in this blog, and it is an interesting story. Many people start off as liberal when they are young, and then become more conservative when they get older. So, Mr. Valentino's story is unique.
I like the questions that you came up with, but I wish that you put more of his answers (and your answers to them) in your post as well.
Try to write a little bit more each week, to fully express yourself and your views. This is a good start, but I expect more writing, more thought, and more effort as we move along.
I know you have it in you.
GR: 80
