So the choice is clear

After the televised discussion yesterday the choice seems even more clear than it was before. Mcbush spent the time talking much about war and how he would listen to the generals when it came to policy. I always thought that it was the generals job to listen to the president. When asked to name the worse supreme court justices he named the best of the supreme court and touted the worse. He was asked to tell his interpretation for what it was to be rich. He gave 5 million dollars as a rich level. He answered most of the questions with simple answers no matter how complex the issue was. He spent his  time pandering to the audience and spent his time telling jokes rather than really discussing important issues. He used an old and tired method of inserting stories to illustrate points and most of the time the stories had nothing to do with the point he was making. 

It becomes clear after watching both these candidates that the better choice for president is Obama. He was thoughtful and intelligent in his answers. He demonstrated that he knew both sides of each issue and gave proper respect to those he disagreed. He spoke in a manner that would make me proud as an American to be represented by this man. yes the choice is clear.
