Obama '08.

Last night Obama won the presidency over McCain. I am not too sure what the overall votes were, but when I went to bed, Obama needed 71 Electoral votes, and McCain needed 135. I am relieved, the thought of another George Bush is rather frightening to me. Call me one-sided, but I seriously cannot see how some people can like John McCain. He is your average rich, white conservative.

Bush (and Cheney, the one pulling the strings), is the reason our Country is in such financial turmoil, and McCain voted alongside him almost 90% of the time. Why do we want someone who is a close follwer of, and endorsed by the worst president in American history?

He wants tax breaks for the rich, and big corporate greedy businessman who care about nothing more than profit for themselves. He wants them to have more money, so they can further carve this country up a little-bit finer among themselves, stiffing the little guys and taking everything for the upper one percent. So why do we want him in office?

He yells at Obama for being socialist because he wants to "spread the wealth around". Why is it so bad for people to be more equal? Capitalism is defined as an economic system in which the means of production are distributed to openly competing profit-seeking private persons. Investments, distribution, income, production and pricing of goods and services are predominantly determined through the operation of a market economy. America wants to have a free market economy, meaning anyone can open up shop. If a person wants to own a business, he can. So if McCain wants to keep tax breaks for the big and the rich, and keep taxing the smaller guys, making it harder for small businesses to succeed, couldn't Obama yell at him saying that he is trying to make America into an Oligarchy? Meaning that the whole country would be controlled by the smallest percentage, but the most powerful. Meaning that the rich and powerful would control everything else.

Something is shady about him.

And as for Sarah Palin...I don't even want to get started on her.
