Truth, hmm, Hillary and McCain want to get rid of the gas tax, and yet by doing so it will enrich the oil companies, and do almost nothing, if not out right nothing, for drivers. Then at some later date she will put a profits tax on them to get it back. What? after they donate millions to her campaign?
Barak, even though it is political not a good idea, speaks the truth that it is a gimmick to get votes. Is this slick talk? No it is the truth. Do people in America want to hear the truth, or lies. Personally I’m tired of the lies. Barak does not lie. Nothing I’ve heard him say is a lie. He hasn’t postured when he could of but said what he believed. Like at the fundamentalist christian led debate, where he bluntly said I believe in evolution. Was he lying to get votes then.
Politics of distraction, and distortion will ruin, and are ruining this country. I will vote for Barak in the general elections because he tells it like it is.
Elitist? When I need an electrician, I listen to the electrician, ditto for plumbers etc. As an economist, does believing people should listen to me about economics make me and elitist? No, it is just my field. Barak is havard educated attorney, top of his class, a first rate politician. More importantly he is genuine. No I don’t believe I’ve been “sweet talked” as a college student, I just tried to have an open mind, that is what school taught me. It’s nice to be a student at 53 with all those young agile minds around. I’ve found them really hard to trap, and I’ve tried.
