Propaganda and Politics

These two subjects go hand and hand anytime there is an election and people are trying to promote themselves. I have witnessed it numerous times before and it's a tactic that has become apart of a politicians nature. They can't survive without it. But what I hate about political figures using propoganda is that they use it as a 'crutch' so to speak. When they don't have many good things to say about themselves and they can't use their experience alone to advertise themselves to the public, they pull other things out of their competitors' past to ruin them and their platform. It's actually really pathetic. If a person running for a political position has things in their past that need to be exposed,they will come to the light. It's nottheir competitors' job to expose it for them. And if a person's opponents work overtime to try and ruin them, that only shows that the opponents are afraid that the other person might win. This tactic, if used totear someoneelse down, only reeks of fear and jealousy. Politicians should worry about their own campaigns and use propaganda to benefit themselves and not to harm others
