Just wondering.....Obama or McCain
The reality is that we have made a presence in the middle east and we are not leaving - if anything Iran is next. And the economy is going to suck for at least another year or two.
Anyone who thinks that a new president is going to bring our troops home and fix our economy is terribly naive.

Things go wrong when the govt is one sided, there needs to be a balance.
The President can hardly fart without getting congressional approval.
He's not the Boss, that's the way our system works though. Check and Balances. He doesn't just get to tell everyone what to do.
When have you ever heard someone say.. well, write a letter to the President! No, they will tell you to write your Congressmen, or write your Senator. Those are the people responsible for actually getting things done. And they're too worried about being Democrats and Republicans. They will vote against each other even when they have a good idea just because the other side thought of it first. You'd think we had a bunch of third graders running this country.
Too many right wing republicans will screw this country up just as bad as too many left wing democrats will. Somewhere in the middle is where common sense is, but it's getting harder and harder to find.

After having read through these posts I feel You should only be allowed to vote if you've taken classes in history, economics, and government structure. And not from a brainwashing establishment such as UCB.
