I have a few issues with the run for the presidency this time around… one of which is having a person I can get excited about running. Barack and McCain look like your typical politicians, although they differ on policy I feel like they are very similar in that respect. I see Obama as someone making me promises he doesn’t intend on keeping just to get in office and without respect for the position (much like Clinton). McCain seems like he would treat the position of president with respect and maybe even be good at it, but if he is such a maverick why have I not seen anything change before now because of him.

So John McCain is running for president. President of the United States of America. Boy, this intro sounds familiar. I kind of have the same feelings for McCain as I do for Obama, just in a different way… obviously. That probably doesn’t make any sense at all.

Barack Obama is running for president. President of the United States of America. For some reason, Barack just doesn’t come off well with me. I mean don’t get me wrong, I think he is a great speaker, has a great personality, and has some charm. He just strikes me as a politician. I feel the same way about John McCain… but I will get to him later. I think I like politicians who don’t strike me as politicians.
