2012 stands out as a significant election year for healthcare, and reform debates are top priority. In November, U.S. citizens will go to the polls to elect the person who will serve as the President of the United States for the next 4 years. Elections for House and Senate seats, as well as pivotal state and local seats, promise an interesting political year. Election events represent years of dedication and purpose in the lives of many people, particularly the candidates. The hours and days spent preparing to compete in a national race require an extreme sense of direction, dedication, and commitment. One component of successful campaigning is providing numerous opportunities for voters to get to know the candidate. Every gathering has to be viewed as a potential venue to promote oneself-each trip to the grocery store, each stop at the service station to gas up the car, every walk around the neighborhood, the weekly worship services, and so forth. People in elected positions and those who aspire to serve in an elected position are constantly in the public eye to remind everyone of whom they represent, what special skills they bring to a position, why they are the best person to serve in the role, how they will work for their supporters, and where they are willing to venture to ensure success.
