Many will agree about the fact that we consider our political views while electing them; however, new research reveals that their faces have a strong impact on our decisions.

According to the latest research, some people elect their leaders with reference to their politics, while others do the same with regard to what feelings their faces may evoke.

Whereas recent research states that we can make assessments with respect to our leaders’ faces, most people are of the opinion that leaders should be elected just based on their political views

Contrary to what most recent research suggests, people tend to elect their leaders according to their political views rather than what they think about their faces.

Most of our feelings about our leaders come from judgements based on their faces, but current research suggests that it is their political views that usually affect us.

Since the operation was only a partial success, we mustn’t expect a speedy recovery.

The operation was a huge success, so he is expected to be back to normal almost at once.

The operation apparently went off well, but quite some time may be required for him to recover fully.
