Politics – What is President Obama’s Making Home Affordable Program All About?December 5th, 2009I know political arguments can get bad, especially when rival parties start digging through their opponents past to try to find any dirt they can. Just recently on of the republicans top GOP rising star Senator John Ensign R-Nevada, admitted to having an affair with his best friends wife of 20 years and later fired them both after the affair came to light. Almost everyone has second thoughts when it comes down to trusting a politician because most of them cannot be trusted. While in the United States it’s usually bad judgments like bribery, affairs, or minor cover-ups that seems to take down politicians, but in other countries political races take the lives of many innocent people. In the southern part of the Philippines a political war has been waging on between two families for decades it’s not just your simple he said she said propaganda, the fighting between the two families having left many innocent bystanders dead. With the gubernatorial race starting to heat up one candidate in the race Ismael Mangudadatu has not only had his lives threaten from political rival the Amputuan clan during the course of the current election but he has also lost close family members in the process. The public opinion polls have been around for a long time, it has became an accepted part of modern life. Almost every day thousands of internet viewers worldwide quote some poll result on a question of current interest. People and organizations who use polls regularly or occasionally to secure reliable information about all sorts of political, social, economic conditions including government bureaus, radio and television networks, motion-picture producers, industrial firms and many others. While investigators try to find witnesses to come foreword to help find the perpetrators, no one really wants to come foreword fearing retaliation from the warlords or militia that is most likely responsible. One witness who would not give his name said, “There were about 12-militia gunman accompanied with local police”. So far National police chief Jesus Versosa has placed the police chief responsible for controlling the area and three other officers one being a person considered to be a suspect into a camp until the investigation is over. The first important task facing anyone who conducts a poll of opinion is to determine just what it is he wants to know. If for example the main purpose is to find out how the American people feel about the United Nations, the essential first step is to pick out the particular aspects of this broad subject that will be investigated. It has to be decided also, whether it is sufficient to find out only what people’s attitudes and opinions are. It may be important to know why they feel and think as they do…How intensely they hold their views, will rest on the extent to which they are informed about the subject matter. The likely bearing of their views will show on the way they will act. While the recent killings have shocked the Philippines nation, given the fact that the southern region is the poorest area in the country, violence similar to the recent massacre have taken place before. Since the 1970’s over 120,000 people have lost their lives to political wars in the southern region. Until the Philippines government officially steps in and take over the area from certain powerful families that run the region with an iron fist, murders and kidnappings will continue throughout every election leaving more innocent people to die Resource Author Francisco Rodriguez H.
