The People's Candidate

We, the American people, are stuck with two candidates for president that want you to believe that they can relate to the every day hopes, dreams, aspirations, concerns and yes, fear.
In the left corner, after a grueling campaign, the Democrats have chosen Sen. Messiah Barack Obama, the man of hope and change. The man of the hard left. The man that wants to be every thing to every body if it gets him into the Oval Office. The man from Chicago, Hawaii, Indonesia, Kansas and where ever he can be from if it matters to get in that oval office.
In the right corner, with a whimper and dividing the right field, the Republicans have chosen Sen. John "F--- You" McCain. A man of the reform right. The original maverick. The man who has served his nation in war and peace. In war, he became a prisoner of the enemy and never gave in. In peace he has served in congress for 26 years. Comes from a long line of naval people. Has a strong pedigree of his own.
Now, the man of hope and change, Sen. Messiah Barack, he is not a man of great wealth. But he has some wealthy friends and lives in a home in Chicago most Americans could only dream of owning.
The man on the maverick right, Sen. "F--- You" McCain has homes all over the United States.
Oh, and he divorced his first wife and married quite up in Cindy McCain. She is very wealthy.
But, who really is the "man of the people"?
Why, Sen. "F--- You" McCain, of course.
Take the following photo


This is Sen. "F--- You" McCain at home, in the United States in the Heartland. Sen. "F--- You" McCain is speaking to the throngs at the annual motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota. Look at him. Shirt sleeves, baseball hat, looking comfortable among his own people.

Now, here is the Democrat nominee,




Look at the contempt on Sen. Messiah Barack's face. He wants to throw that cowboy hat off faster than one could say "Hee Haw!" And, really, does a cowboy wear a suit jacket?!


Now, the above photo is where Sen. Messiah Barack is most comfortable. Among his people, the Germans. This was after his lauded speech before the German masses in which he announced that he was a citizen of the world. Look at the adoring German people. Too bad, but they do not get to vote in the American election. At least not yet.

And, when it comes to addressing the problems that face the American people, particularly the high price of gasoline and the effect that it is having on the overall economy, it is Sen. "F--- You" McCain that gets it. He has backpedaled on offshore drilling and eventually will come around on exploration of ANWR. And, the maverick is a known environmentalist. So, he is offering what I would call the kitchen sink approach. That includes nuclear power, seeking alternative fuels and energy sources, and conservation.

What about Sen. Messiah Barack? Well, if it is not alternative, do not talk to him about it. After all, the price of gas is not what bothers him. It is just that it has happened so fast. So, all we get from Sen. Messiah Barack is the speech on alternative energy and some Mr. Goodwrench advice.

What I have gotten from the campaign so far is that Sen. Messiah Barack prefers huge crowds, and at times in places away from the United States. And, he has to have that teleprompter or he say strange things.

And, Sen. "F--- You" McCain prefers the intimate setting of the town hall. He is willing to answer any and all questions. And, when he needs a big crowd, he knows to go into the Heartland.

We will continue to argue about certain policies with Sen. "F--- You" McCain, but he is the candidate of the people. And, we know that Sen. Messiah Barack is not. Not of the American people.
