I'm sorry, but it's about politics.

So growing up my family never talked about politics, or voting, or anything related to pretty much anything along those line.  Since then I have never really gotten into elections or debates or things of that nature, that is until recently.  With this election coming up, I decided I wanted to be a whole lot more informed and involved with everything this year and find out what each candidate stands for and such.  So just yesterday Paul Ryan came to Provo for a speech. (If you don't know who Paul Ryan is, he's Mitt Romney's running mate.  If you don't know who Mitt Romney is he's the Republican candidate chosen to run against Barack Obama this election.  If you don't know who Barack Obama is...well...you should probably look him up.)  It was interesting to hear him speaking in light of the fact that the Democratic party has decided to remove God from their platform. (Update: They have moved to put God back into their platform, but did so in a quite unconventional way.  If you want to watch the three minute video of the unconventional way just click the following: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cncbOEoQbOg&feature=player_embedded ) I liked how Paul Ryan specified that we should not try and change our country but rather to try and instill the principles that our nation was founded upon.  He also mentioned that families were the nucleus of the nation, which I also thought was good.  His speech was short and a little generic but I didn't mind.
