    you will need to compromise with some of them in order to get some what you want.

I always notice older people have this weird vision that they have to like everything the government does and have a tendency to try pointing out something bad the government does as a reason people will regret voting for them. Like no, of course I'm not going to like everything the person I vote for does. I think maybe politicians used to be a little too romantized or something because I only see it in older people or young people who basically quote their parents. Is that similar in America ?
