Voting promises

It is interesting to note that the republican candidates in my area are a little hardput for good campaign promises...They just opt out and say that it is time for a change..Change to what? Just another culprit like we had already..I will admit, however,that no matter who is elected to office now will never be able to bring the government back to par..It is just not possible in say less than ten years for the deficit and never for the 8.2 TRILLION Debt. Most of this debt is owned by foreign governments and nothing has been paid on it since 1999..Our credit card is getting pretty well over the limit..
