Political Cartoon

In the recent election, Democrat candidates distanced themselves from President Obama. Since  approval rate of President Obama's policies has plummeted significantly, Democrat candidates may have wanted to separate themselves from President Obama.
However, if Democrats don't even trust their leader and do not show confidence in their party, who would want to vote for Democrats? Frankly, this just shows division and dysfunction within the party. In my opinion, instead of distancing themselves from the president, they should have attempted to improve their image by working together.

Recent mid-term election was very unfortunate. The voter turnout appeared very low; majority of Republican candidates won their place in Congress. With them, hopes for environmental and immigration reforms are very low.

If President Obama plans to win his third election, he should attempt to improve his ratings. (and to win my vote, he should work very hard towards either the environmental or immigration reform. )
