Do you think we'd be better off if John McCain was President instead of Obama?

There is no REAL difference between the 2 parties.

Absolutely not...America would most certainly NOT be better off with the erratic and irrascible John McCain (R-AZ) at the helm---especially when one considers how very dumb and inept Palin would be as a second-in-command. McCain was peddling the same dope that took this great nation to the brink of near ruin, remember: supply-side (upside-down-pyramid) economics; deregulation that removes all oversight and consumer protections from banksters, Wall Street, and greed-driven corporations---the same deregulation that brought about the housing/credit markets' COLLAPSE and then the devastating FINANCIAL SYSTEM MELTDOWN which went GLOBAL in its negative impact, bringing most of Europe into bankruptcy that simultaneously slowed our trade, thus impacting our jobs market in the U.S. Romney was also peddling the same nation-destroying dope.

President Obama has been far more brilliant in getting the nation back on a positive path towards safety, strength, and long-term prosperity than he has been given credit for doing (see whitehouse.gov and recovery.gov or read Michael Grumwald's "The New New Deal: The Hidden Story of Change in the Obama Era").

If the far-rightwing-controlled GOP would stop being so obstructionist and fiscally ILLITERATE, perhaps the Obama-generated recovery would be able to pick up some added MOMENTUM that would benefit even the obstructionist GOPers' districts so that these GOPers' would not be in jeopardy come the mid-term elections.

My opinion is that McCain did no longer like the reality of explaining a guy of colour his perspectives and recommendations, sorry to declare this and not being a racists because of the fact I even have blended blood of distinctive nationalities, and to make a ingredient of that McCain did no longer look at Obama whilst he pronounced him and making feedback approximately him, so awaken human beings there continues to be a race subject in u . s . a .. Having served 22yrs of my existence interior the militia protecting u . s . a . I even have earned the suitable to precise my genuine emotions yet continuously with admire to a distinctive.

Oh hell no.

More tax breaks for the rich, less regulations on banks and credit card companies (so they can screw you better), less environmental protections, etc etc

And to top it off we'd probably be involved in a bloody land war in Iran by now.

Hell no.

Let's put it this way, there would be more respect world-wide as well as here in the US, more people would be working or looking for work,etc.

no. they're only puppets. the agenda will be implemented by whoever's backside warms the executive chair.

lol we'd be the same. They work for the same people.

You must be drinking your name. McCain would have us hanging on the side of the world.

Economically about the same. No gay rights. No health care. More war. Lower taxes for the wealthy.

Of course. he wouldn't ba as extreme and wouldn't wasting time blaming others or starting pointless battles with democrats.
