Egypt tried implementing Democracy - but till date several internal cum political issues are face in the nation.Israel - Truly God's own country.

With the Presidential elections approaching, every US citizen would have been busy evaluating the factors that would help them decide the right candidate to be the president of The United States. The reigning President,Obama obviously has a strong hold in this regard as he has been associated with the people's affairs of the country and by now he must have got an idea of the what the taste of the citizens is like. But there is another name that has proven to be a a matter of concern for Obama, he is a candidate contesting for the post of the President of US and his name is Mitt Romney. There might have been cases where the actions of both the competitors have been criticized, but there are certain approaches maintained by them that might prove to decisive factors. Lets take a look on some of them First of all, it is to be notified about the basic factors that Obama is from the Democratic Party and Romney is a Republican party candidate. The former is 50 years old and the latter is 64. Obama is a Protestant who has a background in politics, law and academia, whereas Romney is a Mormon with a background in business and politics as he was the former Governor of Massachusetts. They have got different takes on some issues that occupy important in the country's politics........ one of such issue is unemployment where Obama mainly focuses on eradicating rural unemployment with searching for jobs and training people for that, but Romney's take emphasises on the globalisation of the American market with an inclination to fair means. Obama believes that even at times of recession the essential benefits of the individuals are not compromised with whereas Romney stresses on the creation of private accounts by individuals. For taxation, Obama maintains that the taxes should be lowered for the working and middle classes and Romney mainly wants the tax cut for more people to get their health insurance done. For economic security, Obama plans to take on the corporates so that the commoners are not misled, Romney plans to reduce the cost incurred on the federal structure. About the social issues which have a tinge of religion in them as well, Obama has shown belief in the ​Patient ​Protection ​and ​Affordable ​Care ​Act, whereas Romney clearly goes against it, Obama is pro choice about abortion and Romney is pro life, the former approves of same sex marriages but the latter is against the same, Obama reserves his take on death penalty but Romney fully supports it, Obama has belief in climate change, but Romney doesn't, Obama is in favor of legalising medical marijuana and stem cell research but Romney is again against both. As far as the handling of oil resources is concerned, Obama has a stricter approach while Romney goes for expansion of the business, being in favor of the removal of many restrictions. Their take on relations is however is the other way round, Obama here has a mindset of cooperation while Romney plans to impose strict regulations. There are also differences in them regarding the functioning and structuring of the Defense forces and the environmental standards. A few similarities on the stands in both of them has been marked, regarding the bringing back of troops from Afghanistan, also both of them are evolutionists despite of differences in their religious beliefs. Hope this makes it easier for the US citizens to take their stands in choosing the leader, however if you feel that there is someone else who is more deserving to win the race,or any thing else that you wish to share about the mentioned dignitaries , please do post.
