Two Campaigns down, forty eight to go

Two campaigns down

I have been taking in the campaign of 2008 via TV and I must say it has provided me with some big surprises. I never would have guessed that Obama and Huckabee would take Iowa and then an even bigger surprise in that Clinton and McCain would take NH. I would like to see John Edwards and Mitt Romney take the next state and then with the three top candidate of each party go at it in some sort of debate.

All six of these candidates have something special to give the nation. Obama, is so youthful and such a good speaker, and to think that the United States is considering this black man to be their president tells the world that our race problems are fading away.

Clinton would be the first women president, that tells me that sexism is fading also. It was not all that long ago that women could not even vote in the United States. Hillary is bright and can give the world a true politician from head to toe along with an x president that is all a politician.

John Edwards knows what it is like to be poor and appreciates the fact that he rose up by his and his parent’s bootstraps. He certainly could do a lot to fight the lobbyist running and ruining our government.

Huckabee has a gift of talk; I do believe he could talk us out of war if he became our president. He too knows a little bit of poverty and rose up by his own bootstraps. He offers to America a conscience and that is good.

McCain offers the wisdom that comes with age. He says what he believes to be true. He has no time or money for poles. He knows what war is about, he has been there and done that.

Mitt Romney has known money most of his life. He has learned from his father, who also was a politician. He has the presidential look and that looks is very promising especially when you see a row of handsome young men stand behind him, namely his sons.

We the people must choose who is best for our time. We'll study hard and pray hard so that we will pick the right man or women.
