Becoming more politically savvy

With the New Hampshire primary right around the corner, and the presidential election nearing, presidential candidates are busy spending thousands of dollars on ads and running around the country in an effort to teach Americans their views on "the issues." However, as we all know, these ads are filled with propaganda and do not accurately depict the real issues. Therefore, it is our responsibility as members of the general public to acquire our own perspective on what affects us as a nation.
