US Presidency

[Palmer]

Well I am not an American, so of course I cannot vote in the upcoming US election. BUT pretty much anything that happens in the US effects us here in Canada, so I am going to say that I hope Obama wins. I have several reasons for this, the main one being I agree more with his liberal policies and thought process. Also I think he will be a better president for Canada, and coupled with the fact that I think McCain is just getting too old and far too unstable - just judging by his recent comments (ie: "my fellow prisoners") and actions, and Sarah Palin's crackpot, radical conservative views!! The MAIN thing that has really soured my view of McCain and Palin though is how they have turned the whole campaign to such a negative and racist tone. I think its despicable how they have "brainwashed" their "flock" to believe Obama is a terroist and a Muslim (or Arab) just because of his race. Anyone that turns this into such a hate issue has NO RIGHT being in the Whitehouse!!

As a side note, we here in Canada go to the poles tomorrow for our Federal Election. Who am I voting for? I honestly have no idea yet!! DAMN, I wish our choices were as easy as they are in the States right now. ::
