This year's election

Ok, it is getting close to time to vote. In this year's election we have to choose between an in-experienced, energetic, new comer and a more than qualified, war hero, old guy. Then think about their running mates. It's exactly the same. So, who do we choose. One side says the other is more of the same. The other side says the other is too inexperienced to lead and a supporter of terrorism. Now I have a problem with this. How do you claim that someone is a supporter of terrorism just because of his middle name? Really, this is pretty much all they have. If when you are voting this goes through your mind, then I fear that we are a doomed nation. Listen to what these guys are really saying. Check the fact checker on all of their recent speeches. That is really all you have to do. I realize some people will vote based on your party. That is expected. But what about all the others that say they have not decided?? I recommend to pay attention to their economy plans and tax plans. One purposes to just give tax credits, while the other, wants to cut the taxes of 95% of Americans. How does cutting the taxes on 95% of Americans amount to raising your taxes?? Now when he states he will cut the taxes of people making under 250,000 a year and raise on the ones making over that. He is talking about individuals not business. Business and individuals pay taxes differently. I do not know about any one else but I'm definatly not making 250,000 a year. I do not see the harm in raising taxes on anyone that does make over that. How would it hurt??

Another thing that concerns me, The one guy is pretty old and who knows how long this guy will stay alive. If they say the other is too inexperienced to run the country then this lady is really not ready. Have you heard some of the stuff that comes out of her mouth when asked pretty simple questions???? That scares me.

On Defense, you have one guy that will probably continue the same policies that are in effect now. This is really not that bad, but how long can we afford to go this route?? Spending millions everyday, economy in shambles, it would seem to save alot of money if we started thinking about a new direction. When we first started the war on terror I agreed and totally supported doing what we where doing. When they said lets make this a two front war because, if you remember, they where supposed to be weapons of mass destruction. Then when none where found, it was because they where supporting terrorist. This was disproved and then the terrorist did move in. So what did we go there for?? Now this is not a tough question but atleast we did not have to be lied to. Of course, if they told us the truth, we would have never supported this.

Just keep all these things in mind when you vote. Either way do it because it is the way you feel. Not about what the other says about the other. They are politicians and probably will say just about anything.
