Obama Biden McCain and Palin

Okay so I really didnt want to get all political in here. I have friends and family on both sides but here goes ;

Please read to the end before determining what I am saying as a whole.

We'll start with the Veep's.

Joe Biden-

A great father!!!! A man who over came adversity to raise his family ,staying in the same house and riding the train to washington.There is a lot to like about Sen.Biden.However,he turned on a dime once he took the VP nom.He could've said that "John " was going a different direction and he would like to be a part of the Obama team.Instead rather, he took cheap shots in his acceptance speech against a man he called his "Friend".He spends more time talking about what was done the last 8 than what needs to be done the next 4and has done nothing but blatantly attack his friend. I dont need a friend like that and for me integrity is everything so he's out.The book of James says "a double minded man is unstable in ALL his ways".

Sarah Palin-

Yes,  forty something males can't get enough of her but seriously they are questioning her experience? AS a Governor and a mayor she took on her own party- who does that ? Oh right McCain, we'll come back to that.She has handled payroll ,been to Iraq more than once ,beaten the incumbent and is commander -in-chief of the Alaskan National Guard.I knew I liked her months before anyone had considered her for the VP spot when she told CNN why we NEED to be drilling in the state that she gioverns. How sad that the feminists refuse to support her over her willingness to raise a special needs child .No one criticised Hillary or Ms. Pelosi for being a working mother but suddenly the media wants to take her out.Trying to find dirt where it doesn't exist.

She has integrity and experience so I am a fan - I actually wanted to get the bumper sticker ,cut it in half and reverse the names to read Palin-McCain.

Barack Obama-

I wont take the usual cheap shots here. We dont need to discuss his stand ..ion, the flag or the anthem.If you're for him and you dont know the truth you should investigate then determine your vote.If your against him you already know - so we dont need to get into that.Yes, there is a possibility that he was born in Kenya but it's really to late to stop the machine even if that were true.He does have questionable friends,mentors and allies but again is that important to you ,.. is the question.But the experience thing is huge  here. He doesn't have any. His own senatorial career is full of absences instead of votes. I dont want to discuss how either candidate voted in the senate because there are riders that are bad on perfectly good bills that a good person can't vote for in order to protect the people so I dont want to get into the whole Obama voted this way and McCain voted that. Barack isnt ready is all we need to say.Now so were clear on race lets just say it America DOES need a Black president ...WE are ready! We definitley need to move forward from the old whitemans club - we need a female president and a Jewish one and a blcak president will open those doors.It is about time.However, he or she needs to be qualified,ready , willing and able.I do admire his courage. Its a good thing the media loves him so - if he does win we'll see if they turn on him in the first year or wait until the second. The media was for George Sr. in the end of the campaign and he won.Four years later and he was out - thanks a lot media.I am surprised Sen.Obama has made it this far. I really thought he would do the ole," get your name out there, come back in four or eight for the win".Some of his ideas are pretty good but i a not sonfident he can carry them out.A lot of what these guys say they'll do (McCain included) is not even in the realm of the presidency. Hillary is the worst offender of empty [promises and after eight years in the white house she is fully aware of what can be done from the desk
Senator Obama has only been to visit the soldiers in Iraq or asses the situation twice in his entire career and the second time he took Katie Couric and Charlse Gibson for the photo ops.
.AS for Senator Obama like  Senator McCain said ,"I can't wish him luck but I can wish him well"

speaking of ......

John McCain-

Not my favorite choice from  the entire campaign.I feel like the person who really should be president , who has my complete confidence, usually runs out of money and drops out and this election is no exception.

While I dont agree with all of John McCains policies, I do feel he is the best choice for the job.As for his age , no matter how young or how old the Vice President needs to be qualified and a person you believe in. JFK was the youngest presdient and he was assasinated so age won't make or break you.

Experience? He has the most!! You dont have to agree with me but five years of being tortured for this country , for the right to choose what you do at the national anthem, for the freedom to deny your religion or stand for it has to be worth something,..

FIVE YEARS !!! So we could be the greatest nation in the world whether we were proud of him or not( I beleive the Vietnam Vets are still waiting for their parade)

Five years when he could have gone home because of who his father was- I mean think about that - would you stay in a viet cong prison camp if they said you could go or would you stay until the last man out had made it?

That enough  for me folks- thats all the experience I need the man  to have sit at a desk and steer the country while the house and senate operate the accelerator and brake.

FINALLY-

Heres the thing.I am not trying to make a case either way.Obviously Ive stated my decision process but if your for one or the other this wasn't designed to change your mind or encourage you. I write these things because they need to be said and I hope and pray that whatever you believe - you will get off your butt and vote! Because the crisis we're in was created by republicans and democrats who shared greed as a common character trait.

We need to get back to being the greatest country in the world. We need hope more than we need change.I have change in my pocket I need something that folds.
