It's that time again... A time when Americans choose another unlucky schmuck to be President! I'm a Canadian, so I don't really care, but I figured it was important to you American people so here I am. I'm not trying to badmouth your chosen candidates, but here is my opinion. Like my music post, you guys may have opinions that differ, so be understanding that these are my opinions and I'll try not to make it too harsh. Both of the candidates make promising... Promises. Obama promises health care reorganizations, fixing the broken economy, more jobs for the people, and the end of the war in Iraq. Good promises, but question is, can he keep them?
McCain vows to fight religious persecution, child pornography, human trafficking and other "evils" if he gets elected. McCain sounds like a modern day Batman, appearing to focus more on crime fighting than actually making America a better place. Not that ridding America of criminal offenses won't do it's fair share, but don't you think by actually making people happier there will be reduced crime?
Both of them promise change, and the voters seem ready to believe them. That's a lot of pressure on the winning party, if they can't keep up with their ambitious promises. If it happens to Obama, it will most likely mean that he will be the first and last black president. If it happens to McCain, then it'll blow over like sand on a beach. People will just say that he is just another George Bush. There is also a lot of pressure on the losing side if the winning party fails to rise up on their promises. They will have to step in at the next election, with more material like "[Put Party Here] failed to give you jobs and better health care!..."..
Do you remember what happened to George Bush? He's an idiot, that's what happened. And he got into the White House by? Yep, you got it. Capturing the votes of the people. Let's just hope that it doesn't happen to the victor of this Politically Burning bout. And if he does screw up, will you be one of the people who fully supported him, now saying that he's a complete idiot who shouldn't have made into the White House? I'm sure there are quite a few of you out there for George Bush...
I just have a question to ask you people. If you're voting for Obama, are you doing so because of the promises he made, or are you voting to make history [of the first Black president]? Just think about what I said before. If Obama screws this up, there's a looming possibility that he will be the last Black president in the coming future.
That's their promises, and I'm sure you can detect which side I'm leaning towards. Now the question is to you, my few American readers. Who will you vote for?
