Anyone else find the campaign ads to be a waste of time?

It's an election year. That means campaign ads all day every day. This candidate says that candidate did this and you should not vote for them. That candidate says this candidate did this and you should not vot for them. An endless parade of candidate badmouthing candidate. Does it actually serve a purpose. Personally those ads don't make me want to vote for either of the candidates. Lets take a moment to look at what an election means. In a democratic system the politicians supposedly work for the people and are chosen by the people. So essentially that makes a campaign one long job interview. I don't know about you but if I were an employer looking to hire someone I wouldn't hire a person who spent the interview telling me why I shouldn't hire anyone else. I'd much rather hear about why I should hire that person and not someone else. So how about this,the candidates actually take that oppurtunity to tell us what they want to do and how they plan to do it after they're elected. It's a novel idea I know. But wouldn't that actually give you, the voter, more of an incentive to vote. A clearer idea of what they actually intend to do in office would be nice. I for one am tired of bad mouthing the opposition and sweet talking the voters. Empty promises aren't going to make a difference. I'm RoestEmPoe and I approve of this message.
