I Never Thought
Mar. 20, 2008 Posted in Politics
I never thought that the Democratic party would ever sponsor two spirited debaters of fluff. The Republicans have chosen their candidate without consensus. The media has given us flash, boom, and charming rhetoric about the candidates for office. Overall, I think the public is being prepared not to take things seriously.
Does either candidate support the military? Remember Walter Reed? All the candidates were in office at the time of the veteran medical scandal. Do they support jobs for American workers? Remember NAFTA!, cries for increased taxes, benefits for illegal immigrants, selective laws and punishments for the elite.
I don't see a single candidate who can claim presidential experience. Having tea with the ambassador's wife while your husband negotiates is not experience.
As regard to truth, it is hard to get straight answers from the press. They are literally not asking any meaningful questions of the candidates.
I am more excited by the run up to the conventions than I will be by the campaign of Republican versus Democrat candidate after the conventions.
It is like a soap box opera. Will Obama take off the gloves with the white lady? Will the distinction that Obama is black be a key racial ploy of Clinton's attack machine.
If your back was to the wall and the candidates were protecting you. Which one would slip a knife in you if offered personal gain or political office?
We have interesting choices!
