Mitt Romney

Last week Mitt Romney was in Idaho Falls campaigning and I was able to go see him. It was a neat experience for a few reasons. One, I had never been to a political rally like that before. And two, I had never met Mitt Romney. His speech was pretty short but somehow full of a lot of key points. I can't say that it really helped my view of politicians as a whole. I didn't realize how much work was put into a simple campaign rally like this one. There were a few thousand people crammed into a high school gym all waiting to hear from a man they thought could change our country for the better. When I think about one man changing a country I don't think that's really a reasonable thought. What's happened to our country in the last few years is a result of years of problems piling up. I still firmly believe that we as citizens are who has to really make the changes. That's why our country is so unique is because we are able to decide what's best for our country. I am so grateful to have been born in this country. I have been blessed with many opportunities that I know I couldn't have in other places around the world. For example, being involved in the election process. That is a pretty cool thing if you ask me. At the end of the campaign I was able to shake Mitt Romney's hand and I also looked him straight in the eye and said, "Hello." Okay, that's not all I said but I can't remember what exactly I said so that will have to suffice.
