McCain vs. Obama

This is a good match up. I spent the better part of my life arguing politics with my father (a diehard democrat). It’s not easy to argue with an experienced, older, and wiser person even when you’re right (a luxury Obama doesn't have). I would have to do my home work when arguing with my old man, because living the politics of yesterday is much different then reading about them. Recalling facts of events and failed policies is much easier when you were there. Obama is obviously going to get the younger vote; young people are lacking wisdom and are full of misguided ideals, so it’s a perfect fit. I don’t think the public is nearly as racist as the press wants us to believe and even people with hesitation about Obama’s race are going to see past it as they get to know him. If their misguided ideals are in line with his they will vote for him. It’s the same with McCain; about his being a senior citizen and all. I think this race is going to be another party line vote. The educated people will vote with the party they always vote with, because they have issues they care about and those issues haven’t changed parties. The undecided retards will vote for… well who knows even they don’t. I don’t really know who is voting for whom and why. I can only truly understand like minded people, but I don’t think the press has a handle on it either. They’re so gun hoe on exploiting a racial divide that they’re crediting a huge portion of Obama’s support to white intellectuals. I must be one of the stupid white people because I have no idea who these people are. Are they the cappuccino drinking, BMW driving yuppies, which look down on everyone and everything? Are they the old hippies with their long silver hair screaming and yelling at these rallies? Because I’ve seen them on TV and intellectual doesn’t come to mind. Is it the college professors who are turning out these bleeding heart crybaby kids into the world, where after a few years of paying taxes they see the true story and many turn to the ignorant side of the fence? Is it the European loving, art appreciating, tree huggers? Is it the celebrities who feel guilty about being rich? Where’s this huge population? What is intellectual about the Democratic Party as it stands today? If you had intellect, you would see socialism doesn’t work. Global warming is not in our control. The European way of doing things does not work; if it did they would be in our position, instead of the other way around. Some people vote on social issues or the war in Iraq, but most modern democrats are socialists, not intellectuals. They are either bleeding hearts or they need a hand out.



Socialism refers to the goal of a socio-economic system in which property and the distribution of wealth are subject to control by the community.[1 This control may be either directly exercised through popular collectives such as workers' councils or indirectly exercised on behalf of the people by the state. As an economic system, socialism is often characterized by collective ownership of the means of production, goals which have been attributed to, and claimed by, a number of political parties and governments throughout history, due to this, socialism has been identified with communism mainly because the distribution of wealth is controlled as a whole and not individually.
