So Little Time...Still Undecided?
I honestly don't know how anyone can still be undecided with the plethora of information out there. Let's look at the pro/anti information.
Pro-Obama: He is mulato, drawing the best from both his black and white heritage. He is intelligent, being the first African-American president of the Harvard Review. He was a community organizer who knows how to rally people. He has been shaped by listening to many different viewpoints and considering or dropping them as he saw fit. That's what people do in trying to educate themselves.
Anti-Obama: He's been linked to two "extremists". The Weatherman Bill Ayers and the Reverend Wright. Look "the weathermen" up on wikipedia; they were the most polite bombers ever. They rang up the staff of every building they were planning to turn into collateral damage. The only people they ever killed were themselves (via nail bomb construction).
Rev. Wright is an idiot, as is Palin's priest who cast the demons and witches away from her. The embarrassing video has been passed around and is readily available online, so I won't repeat it here.
Pro McCain" He is a Vietnam war hero; he has fought first-hand in a war (that most Americans at the time knew we would lose). He was a pilot extraordinaiire who was shot down and taken prisoner. He has positioned himself as a maverick against the current administration.
Anti-McCain: His "maverick" position is belied by his voting with George W. Bush 90% of the time. His military role has come under fire because of the number of planes lost in uncertain cercumstances. His tax policies continue the GWB policies.
This is just a short blog; see for yourself, do the research and decide.
And when you do look into the realities of each candidate, you wil probably see that Obama's platform is much closer to your own heart than NcCain's...but do the research and decide for yourself.
Just realize that time is short; you need to decide and vote.
