I wouldn't consider myself a political person, but I do keep myself informed about what's going on. Being a military family, knowing who is in government, and what their plans are, is important, because at the end of the day, it's going to affect you and your family. I always vote in government elections for the same reason.
I've met our Prime Minister twice, at military functions, and several main party leaders too. They all had the gift of the gab, so were very easy to talk to. They were very good at small talk and seeming sincere. (Aren't they all?). I like our Prime Minister. I don't agree with some of his decisions, but as a person I like him - he's very down to earth.
