Your Thoughts ?
Princess.....
My feelings are very simple......
I could careless about the particular candidate or the party. My assessments are made/based solely on who the candidates economic and foreign policy advisors are. That essentially tells me everything I need to know..... Who their preacher is or how much blow they snorted in college means absolutely nothing to me.....
In the case of the three candidates mentioned above.....all three are beholden to the ''Chicago boys'' /Friedman-Von Hayek / ''free-market freak'' school of thought ; with no belief/ form of protectionism built-in for US markets. It's the ''perennial'' free-trade mode of thinking that's slowly destroying our middle class.
On the foreign policy front : You have McCain.... who's basically an extension of the Bush administration's polices of aggression and preemptive war. Yes....a hundred years of the ''war on terror.''
With Obahma you have Zbignew Brzienzki and family---Mark,Mika, etc,etc, ----running the defense/state departments with war aggression directed at Russia in the form of proxy wars with stooges, patsies, dupes, etc....
You pretty much have the same thing with the Clinton machine in that Richard Holbrook, the ''mad bomber of Serbia'' would be back at the state department helm.
So you have to ask yourself.....which is worse : War with Iran/Iraq or war with the Kremlin?
For that reason.....I'm unsure whether I cast my protest vote for Ron Paul, Vlad Putin, Hugo Chavez , Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or Robert Mugabe....
