Raine's frustration

I know no one in our class is going to agree with me, I know I stand in the minority as a college student who is a republican. And I'm sure how I feel is how many democrats would feel about if McCain was in the lead.

I am worried about the lack of experience Obama holds, who is close to becoming President. I don't see that he is qualified at all to be President. He has only had two years in the Senate. When did two years make some one qualified to run a country. He lacks any experience. I would rather have a Vice Presidential candidate with less experience than have a Presidential candidate with no experience.

As i was the person who stood up and advocated McCain yesterday in class, I wanted to provide a link to a little youtube clip explaining what I was talking about yesterday with Obama's economic plan. I hope people take a look at this and think for a minute if they really think Obama's plan will help the economy.

And for those people that want out of Iraq now, good luck with voting for Obama. I am currently watching CNN, and they just stated that Obama is not going for any sort of radical change. He will not be able to get rid of the 12 billion dollars that is going towards Iraq. He is now in agreement with Bush's pre-emptive policy if necessary as well. Sounds like nothing is going to CHANGE like he claims it will.

My apologies if I offended any one. Everyone has an opinion. Many people get to voice theirs for Obama during class. Im open to criticism as well.

I am in agreement with Raine. It seems like every time there is an election everyone is always wrapped up in what is going to change and what the next step or plan is. I think that people don't realize how hard it is to actually implement any of these candidates plans. McCain knows and understands how the government works because of his experience. McCain knows people in the Senate as does Obama however McCain has actually worked with these people over the years, he has reached across the isle and actually accomplished things. Unfortunately, Obama missed almost HALF of his votes in the Senate so we don't really know how he feels about many of these issues. It is disturbing to me that we are so close to electing someone who does not have enough experience as a Senator to even head a committee in the Senate. How can we trust such inexperience?
