Hello everyone. Smiley

I am a German student and I've been around in this forum for a few months now because I've been really interested in American politics, which is also the topic of my final research paper in I have to finish until July before I finish school. I intend to have a closer look at different demographic groups and to use this insight to explain the ambivalence between the high approval ratings of President Obama and the success of Donald Trump and the Republicans in Congress on November 8.

I plan to create a vivid delivery of my new findings though the demonstration of personal stories of American citizens. I search for Americans who would like to participate anonymously in an interview about their personal background and their basic political orientation (e.g. Where do you live? What is your party affiliation? etc). I do also search people who are underage.

Your involvement in this would help me a lot. Please comment if you are interested in this and I will contact you very soon.

Thanks guys. Smiley

I am very impressed by your willingness to bring my project forward, thank you all! Smiley

Not that it is really the focus of your project, but googling around, I found this of interest, and perhaps you might too.

As to interviewing me, I am not sure I fit into the category for which you are looking. I disapproved of Obama's performance and voted for Clinton. You are looking for the flip side it seems - those who approved of Obama, but voted for Trump. On this site, in fact, the number of posters who fit into the latter category might be fewer than the number of fingers on one human hand. My little category is far more plentiful I think. Many of us found Trump an abomination, and that "trumped" everything else as it were.

In any event, good luck!

The ambivalence is indeed a significant factor I want to have a look at, but I definitely do also want to show your perspective to underscore the political divisiveness of the United States. So I would be happy if you helped me. Smiley
