It's a political mess.....One based on not voting for worst, instead of voting for the best. The worst is not define by agenda but by the person, and by those who feed the public state of mind.
Things all change with the election of GW Bush. I had no pre-conceived notion about the man. In fact, my ideas about the presidency didn't change with his election. I figured he'd be a lot like his father, nothing to write home about, but a house I could live in.
That all changed when he EARNED my disrespect.
Because of that we are now confronted with disrespect without it being earned. We are told to dislike before we even know what it is we like.
From a conservative standpoint is just revenge for GW Bush. but it is a revenge that is destroying our political system. The liberals can now take their revenge for disrespect of Obama. The only difference is the Liberals aren't going to have to lie about it.

The coming Presidential elect will give the American people. The two worse candidates, that this country has ever known.
Hillary Clinton has no ability to be President, none of the current leading Republican candidates has the ability to be President. No candidate is going to tell the American people what really happening. No presidential candidate is going to get Congress to do anything.
WE currently have no leaders, to choose from.

    Quoting jiminycricket1:
    The coming Presidential elect will give the American people. The two worse candidates, that this country has ever known.
    Hillary Clinton has no ability to be President, none of the current leading Republican candidates has the ability to be President. No candidate is going to tell the American people what really happening. No presidential candidate is going to get Congress to do anything.
    WE currently have no leaders, to choose from.
My sentiments exactly, which is why I choose not to get involved in any sort of in depth politics. It's become a situation of making the choice of the least harmful rather than the most helpful.

What happened to the political conventions of the past?

Is it a good or bad thing that they seem to be gone?

I think it's clear that people just don't trust any politicians anymore, and would rather vote for someone who keeps them entertained. How can people ever trust another politician after all the scandals and obstruction? At first I thought Trump might be making some good points, but the more I heard from him he doesn't seem to have any ideas whatsoever on how to actually fix anything. Reminds me of the Pope, it sounds like he cares and might makes things better, but he hasn't made any changes at all.
