Either President elect John McCain with Sarah Palin as his Vice President elect.
Or President elect Barack Obama with Joe Biden as his Vice president elect.
What will America be like on November 5, 2008?
If it's McCain, then you will not see much change from what we are used to.
If he keeps us in 2 wars, then more young men and women will die on both sides.
We have to pay over $10,000,000,000 per WEEK so far to keep these wars going.
Where is all that money coming from, and to who is it going?
It is coming out of every one of our pockets and purses.
After we pay for the war, we then have to pay for high gasoline prices and high food prices.
Since everyody needs fooe, everybody is affected by these prices.
Food has to be transported from the farms and manufacturers to the food chains, and that cost allot of money on fuel.
They pass the cost to the consumers in high food prices.
All business large or small also get affected by high gas and high food costs.
Everybody is paying more, therefore are sometimes forced to charge more for whatever products and services they offer.
Now the cost of everything is going up.
People are already stretching there money now.
If you are married with children, you have to divide your money into several pieces.
If it is hard for you, imagine what your kids will experience in the future when they have to strike out on there own?
We too often think too much of ourselves, and not enough about others.
This is called self centered or selfish.
Do unto others as we would have others do unto you.
Love thy neighbor as thy self.
These are at the top of the list of the Golden Rules give by the creator of the universe.
How many people are doing this?
Not enough.
Unted we stand, divided we fall.
We used to be just humans, but now we are so divided.
Leftist, right wingers, liberals, conservatives, democrats, republicans, moderates, independents, young, old, rich, poor, black, white, latino, asian, christian, muslim, catholic, baptist, evangelicals, athiets, agnostics, straight, bi, gay, transgendered, and the differences go on and on, and on. So many different ideas, and opinions.
Now anyone in America who is a registered voter has an opportunity to decide the future of not just the US, but of the world.
The US is a giant straw that stirs the world, and the next US president gets to cotrol the straw.
Most people have negative opinion about the last 8 years.
If you pay attention to the news, you will learn the economy is not doing well.
Prices are higher then they have ever been, and people are panicking about gasoline.
If we do drill, the people who own and control this will only make more money then they have been making. Billions of dollars in profit. There is no guarantee that extra off shore drilling will produce anymore oil, and even if it does, it does not guarantee that prices will fall either.
The republican ticket wants to continue most of the current ideas, beliefs, priciples, and policies of the current administration.
The democratic tickets wants to change the policies of the current administartion, and lead America to not just a new, but better future.
However, most people are afraind of change, and are more comfortable with what they are used to and what they know.
They have suffered the past 8 years, and are more then willing to allow another 4 or 8 of the same.
Fear of the unknown would have never allowed us the land on the moon.
We say we are the land of the brave and the home of the free.
If we are so afraid to move forward into the future, how can we call ourselves brave?
We used to fear nothing, but now we say we are so afraid of electing Obama.
The gas and food prices will continue to rise, if we fear change and elect those who will follow the current administrations policies.
If you are happy with everything as they have been the last 8 years, then you need to vote for McCain and Palin.
Otherwise you must vote for Obama and Biden, for a new and better future.
The oil companies will be voting for McCain and Palin.
Who will you be voting for?
