I heard a Political Science Professor yesterday, and he gave a VERY interesting critique of the Candidate's personalities. I though it might be interesting. He said, "After over 40 years of watching Political Candidates, I've seen many interesting personalities, from Ross Perot, to Howard Dean, from Ted Kennedy to Ronald Reagan."
He went on to give synopsises of the current crop:
John McCain: A man who seems humble at times, but in reality has a tremendous ego. A man who jus RECENTLY has given the impression he is a "true Conservative", has voted for many issues, sponsored many bills that anger "Reagan Conservatives". He is not being totally sincere about his views, but McCain is easy to read, he has a LONG voting record, as an Independent Republican. A man who has a leash on his temper, but just barely. A man who ENJOYS thumbing his nose at his own Party, for percieved slights, and also for REAL differences in opinion, a man who, above all, likes being referred to as a "maverick", a "Lone Wolf".
Hillary Clinton: Obviously, we already KNOW a great deal about Mrs. Clinton, her genuine affection and CARE, about children's and women's issues, and of course, Health Care. She is Determined to get Universal Health Care to ALL Americans, whatever it takes, and sees it as her legacy. She is not the gifted Natural Politician that her husband is, because she is not as adept at obfuscation and "triangulation", but she IS as good at attack on her enemies, and does NOT give up.
Barack Obama- This man is a newcomer, so we don't know as much about him as the others, but we are learning more and more, as time goes by, especially in the last month. A very intelligent man, married to an intelligent woman. Mr. Obama decided to enter Public Life in the tough world of Chicago Politics. He has, at the core of his beliefs, a Marxist/Socialist Agenda. It can be seen in his choice for a Wife, in his choice for a Pastor, in his Education, in his choice for Freinds, Weathermen Terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, and Palestinian Terrorist sympathizer Rashid Khalidi. At the Heart of his Beliefs is Anti-Capitalism, a belief that America's past mistakes far outweigh the Good we have done since our inception, also a Sympathy and Agreement with many of America's worst enemies, and their hatred of our culture and system. I really couldn't say, what a Govt. uner Barack Obama would be like, or become.

WOW! This guy knows these people like a family member! It was said he did a year's worth of research, for a book, "American Politics in the Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries"
I just don't get it, I REALLY wish one of you could explain it to me. I KNOW that NONE of these people are Ideal candidates.
But don't you SEE, that "one of them is different from the rest", like that sond and chlildren's game on Sesame Street? Where they showed you two pieces of fruit, and then a lamb chop?
Do you think Hillary Clinton, (definitely not MY first choice for Pres.) whatever her faults, would ALLOW HERSELF TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED, MAKING A CAMPAIGN PHONE CALL, WITH A POSTER OF CHE' GUEVARA IN THE BACKGROUND? I mean, forget about Black or White, get REAL, you don't have to be a PoliSci Professor to know that THIS guy is VERY far from Red White and Blue! Do you not see how INSANE the thought of this guy as PRESIDENT is?
