Whose Qualified To Be Commander And Chief

Policies are a guideline that leaders set for themselves and others. Deciding who has the better policy is important. John McCain basis his views differently than Obama, and visa versa. McCain’s view on education is as followed. He wants to shake up failed and failing school bureaucracies, with more competition. Also, empower parents with choice, remove barriers to qualified instructors. Barack Obama similar in what he also wants to do with the education system. Wanting to hire more teachers for higher pay. Even higher all school standards nationwide. Now, this is where like many times the candidates will disagree, energy. McCain wanting to stop the $700 billion dollars from being spent on foreign oil. Instead, drill right here off the coast of the United States. Barack Obama though would like to tap natural gas reserves. Also, invest in clean coal technology, and invest $150 billion dollars in affordable, renewable sources. Now, why would Obama not just want to drill off shore? There is plenty of oil we can obtain right here in the U.S. There is no point in investing in clean oil technology in the U.S. right now. Right now we need help in pulling the gas prices down from $3.00 and $4.00 dollars a gallon. This much for gas is ridiculous.


Economy is important to all American citizens, with both candidates trying to help. McCain, wanting to keep taxes low and help small business grow and create new jobs. Then, double the child tax exemption from $3,500 to $7,000. Obama wanting to give back jobs to most automotive industries in America, instead of shipping those jobs overseas. Then, make healthcare affordable for all. Iraq, one of the most discussed topics in the 21st century. McCain fought for more troops when it wasn’t accepted. He would rather see himself lose the election than lose a war. Obama on the other hand just says he wants to finish the war responsibly, not to prolong it. Yes, we need to finish it or the lives lost was for nothing, but McCain did right when he fought for more troops. Without more troops there is no way in winning a war. To win a war you need supplies, meaning men, weapons, advanced tactics. In this issue the only right one is both. Foreign Policy is next, McCain wanting to give aid to Georgia. Becoming allies with Georgia could mean giving us foreign oil for cheaper. Now I know I’ve already said I wanted drilling off the coast but, if getting a little extra oil; cheaper gas. Obama on the other hand wants to keep Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. Yes, its important but were in Iraq, wouldn’t keeping Iran from getting nuclear weapons cause a conflict? Yes…

The armed services are next. McCain wants to honor all American veterans and current active duty soldiers. Obama wanting to just build a larger army. Budget Taxes, McCain just wanting to keep takes low and cut them were he can. Obama wanting to close corporate loopholes and tax havens that don’t help America grow.

Honestly, after all I have read about the following candidates I want McCain as president. Yes, he’s an older man but with age comes wisdom; which can be shown in the above policies. McCain I believe can do more for the country than Obama can. McCain’s Energy, Economy, Foreign Policy, and finally budget taxes are all superior to Obama’s. McCain has served the country before in Vietnam, and I believe he has what it takes to be president.

Is Controlling The Minorities Important For A Equal Future

I read an article titled , “In A Generation, Minorities May Be the U.S. Majority”, by : Sam Roberts. This article explained how in the very near future, the United States will be home to more minorities all around the world. Soon the Latin Americans, African Americans, Asians, etc., will no longer be societies minority. It will be the whites whom will become the minorities. This immigration to the United States is supposedly to triple, making the U.S., have a non dominate race. White would no longer be the races associated with the U.S., it would be African Americans or Asians, etc. This basically kind makes me happy and upset at the same time. This is what the founding fathers wanted for America, an outlet or a country for escaping the up rise of monarchs and dictatorships. The only reason I become upset is due to the new ethnicities coming to the U.S., and not knowing our language are government, etc. This, also means taking jobs from the working man and or living off welfare and basically becoming a vampire effect on the working class. Also, after this article I read, “A Nation of None and All of the Above”, By: Sam Roberts. In This article he states even though the other ethnic groups are rising the white population will cease to fall. Meaning even though the other ethnic groups will rise the white will only fall by a few percentile. This mostly takes my thoughts by surprise. The last article by Roberts stated large populations of immigrants coming to the U.S. This made me think that white population would then become the minority. Well, no it won’t according to Roberts. Making this article important, imposing the issue, why not make both articles one. This is what America needs to know and discuss…..Are Future.

Direct T.V. Hates Puppies

Since direct T.V. charges so much for HDTV, in fact they are hating on puppies. Time Warner Cable loves puppies due to the low charge for HDTV. With less money for puppy chow due to the over charge on HDTV...direct T.V. hates puppies. Why direct T.V.?
