well ive finally formed an opinion on the three presidential candidates. i normally dont have opinions on these types of things so my input and ass blast of words will probably be overlooked or dropped out of the cycle immediately. all i know about the candidates is what ive heard when i caught wind of some news report or some radio show host blowing it out their ass. limited knowledge is sometimes the best knowledge, for people who know how to pick and choose details and qualities it helps for a stronger and more logical opinion. so heres my critique...
hillary - i dont trust a womans leadership, ever. its just the way i am. from my experience women are either extremely indecisive or have weak judgement that is easily clouded. if i offended anyone with that, im sorry, but thats been my experience. i wouldnt trust hillary as the top military commander. however women are also much more compassionate and caring than men, and i believe she could do this country a lot of good... as long as she focuses on this country and not those f***ing worthless children in africa.
mccain - i dont approve of mccain personally, but he has more experience than either hillary or obama in more than just politics. i respect him for his conviction to the united states, if i were in his shoes as a p.o.w. i would absolutely despise america for putting me in the situation. i dont love this country enough to do what he is doing. would he be a good choice for president? i guess. he seems like he could get stuff done... though i wouldnt expect his health to live up to his career. someone his age in his physical condition shouldnt be running a country, his role would be best as an adviser to someone who trusts him.
obama - i dont like obama, im making that clear right up front. to me he is as foreign as an illegal immigrant. he was raised on foreign soil for 4 years, he attended a racist anti-american church for 20 years, and doesnt seem to really have any direction as a leader. i dont understand why people would want this man to be president, infact i will go so far as to say those who do are extremely unamerican. given his current track record im shocked he is still in the race. what do people see in obama? hope and change? hope is admission of helplessness and submitting your personal power to an outside source. and what exactly would he change? i honestly dont have anything good to say about obama... hes just a mistake, its a miracle he has come this far for being who he is. i suppose thats a testament to something... im not sure what though.
so thats my take on these candidates. i dont like any of them, for various reasons; outside of "well hes a democrat" or "hes a republican", and "omfg theyre so stupid". i think ive said it before, but whoever wins is going to make america a very interesting place to live the next 4-8 years. i still plan on moving out of the states asap however. i can understand where some people come from when they start these petty insignificant fights over candidates. their candidate didnt win, so now theyre throwing fits and everyone who disagrees with them is fair game. my views on the whole situation are mostly unbiased, and based on things that really matter... like real world application and decisiveness. if someone is running on the tailcoats of their spouse who happened to be a former president, then i dont see much use for them other than taking a ride on the merry-go-round. with age comes wisdom, but youth and vitality take a hike leaving behind a riddled piece of decaying meat. preying on the susceptibility and dullness the public has is hardly something i would consider just or means of victory. think vampires. no one likes them and in all actuality theyre weaker than their prey.
there are better things to do than fritter away time debating - its pointless. thats just what i think. when i want to get something done i dont beat around the bush, i get it done. debating for days and weeks and months like the majority of people here on voice do is so far from getting something done i wouldnt even call it beating around a bush, its more like painting grass around the house.

| A/C. Comparing the personality traits of women you have known or dated is hardly a criteria for selecting leaders. I would not want any male I have ever met as President either but that hardly disqualifies those I have not met as being suitable! McCain has a mythology, not a history. He was not tortured the 5 years he was in Vietnam. He was in the Hanoi Hilton about a week and many of his injuries were gotten in his air crash. He spent months in a hospital after which he was in a Geneva-convention respecting POW camp (not the torture camps the USA now supports). Also, he has done little to nothing for the country that he did not do as a died-in-the-wool conservative. Campaign finance reform was designed to destroy the Democratic party financially and it damn near did. He has no real claim to fame except supporting the Republican agenda while not getting blamed for it. So, why should he be a better "leader" than Hillary? Speaking of foreign, McCain was born in Guam and his citizenship is still in question. The Trinity United Church of Christ is not freakin' racist-- unless dark-skinned people who aren't afraid to speak their experience really scare you (speakin' of women having weak easily clouded judgment)! Debate is not beating around the bush, unless you find it as unAmerican as democracy, which requires debate. Hope it's Australia you're planning on moving to- coz judging from your "unbiased" (choke) opinions it's the only English-speaking country with suitably marginalized people who will look like "illegal immigrants" NOT enjoying full-blown liberalism outside the US! |

I would not want any male I have ever met as President either but that hardly disqualifies those I have not met as being suitable!... View this Comment learn something new every day, i did state that my observations were based on limited knowledge =) and i think everyone here knows i tend to stray as far from politics as possible. my experience of women in leadership has been few and far between, i imagine theres a reason for that - and when i have witnessed and or been under it i understand why. im not being absolutely sexist in that statement, it takes a strong woman to be a leader more so than a man. its history repeating its self on a smaller scale. though those female amazon warriors do inspire me to think differently ... theyre not exactly around to ask how life is now though. it is possible to have a successful female leader (i never said it was unfathomable), but i dont see it in hillary. thats my pov. europe actually, ive been thinking about scottland, ireland, südeutschland (id rather say grüß dich than tag or guten tag), trondheim, or maybe... just maybe hammerfest. between you and me i cant stand temperatures above 75 degrees for more than a few months. i did consider russia but i dont want to be involved in criminal syndicates, and russian was harder to learn than japanese. p.s. i still have a crush on you, and do you actually care about what some freak on the internet says? |

I'm pretty sure that Bush has f***ed you longer and harder than any other man ever has. Kind of makes your old boyfriends look presidential by comparison. |

| "unless dark-skinned people who aren't afraid to speak their experience really scare you" - Cynthia I heard some dips*** on Farias' show today try to sell this scared of dark skinned people bulls*** today. She went on to say that white people don't like Obama because he is black but that should not disqualify him as a real candidate. News Flash People... It should not be THE THING that qualifies him either. No other one term (not even a full term) Senator would have a snow balls chance in hell at the nomination of either party regardless of race. But he's Black. This is the only thing this idiot caller could say. Not surprising, as I "profiled" her speech pattern and dialect, she was black too. Michelle was her name. If you know Michelle you should tell her that she is an embarrassment to all women and blacks for being so ignorant. Voting for a Washington Freshman to be President with no experience to speak of who speaks well when teleprompted is stupid. In fact it is even more stupid than voting for a second term Senator with limited experience who can actually speak well with or without a teleprompter. No experience, "but he's Black" and little experience, "but she's Female" are not qualifications. Nor should be, lots of experience, "but he's a Veteran". We have to look at the entire adult history of these people. Bad judgment all the way around and plenty for each of them to claim. Obama has Rev. Wright, Whether Underground Members, and his wife. Hillary has, there isn't room to list them all, and Bill. McCain has Keating, The crazy Pastor and Cindy. I am sick of being told by the left why I won't vote for either Obama or Clinton. The day the sex or skin color of a candidate become requisites for office is the day I buy an island in the South Pacific and start my own nation. Averagica would be a very nice country to live in. |

Joy! Please, Please make this about McCain's "mythology". McCain will not do it unless you prompt him. As a public service speak truth-to-power, CLB. Trivialize his "air crash" injuries and thrice weekly beatings for 2 years. Talk at length about how the weight gain problem among Gitmo detainees is equivalent to the malnourishment McCain endured. Hold forth about the modern medical care provided the detainees is brutal compared to untreated dysentary McCain nearly died from. Go on swift boat McCain! You know you want to. |

| Amen. They really really want to go after McCain. I may not be his biggest fan but but the man went through hell. If they attempt to minimize that they will have their asses handed to them on that issue. |

View this Comment I have no problem with John McCain the Vietnam War Vet or John McCain the ex-POW. That part of his life is as relevant to me as John Kerry's swift-boat day, and where he was Christmas Eve 40 years ago. The John McCain I have trouble with is the Senator, and his voting record, and his hypocrisy, and his temper. That's the John McCain who will lose this election. |

I think the debates on this site have been been passionate and sometimes ridiculous, but overall people can learn a lot about certain issues and appreciate other angles that may change their views.
