Potential 1st Female or Minority for president? Wow - history is being written this year! All the runners have some good points I think it will be a very close election between Clinton and Obama. I did like a couple of McCains proposals too.

We're over 9 Trillion dollars in debt, the jobs are leaving the country and the economy is tanking? Will any of these candidate make a difference?:confused:

Just my opinion

Something to fathom. From the article "Less on the Beets, Please, and More on the Budget" By Jean Johnson and Scott Bittle

This budget problem is real, and it's really, really big. Here's one way to get a handle on how big the federal debt is. The annual interest we pay on that $9 trillion costs us more than the war in Iraq. Mindboggling, isn't it? And while getting out of Iraq could save massive amounts of money -- not to mention irreplaceable human lives -- it won't solve our budget problems. As of June 2007, we've spent more than $600 billion on Iraq, Afghanistan and the rest of the "war on terror."€ In the same time period, we added over $2 trillion to the country's debt. So it's not just Iraq€ -- not by a long shot.

Somebody say surplus? Don't count on it. Yes, it's true that projections from the Congressional Budget Office show a surplus by 2012. But that's only if Congress lets every single one of the Bush tax cuts expire. Not even the Democrats are pushing that. And remember, even those Democrats who want to raise taxes on wealthy Americans generally have other plans for the money, namely expanding health care coverage. Counting on that surplus is burying our heads in the sand.

Falling deficit? Don't uncork the champagne yet. Yes, it's better than having the deficit go up, but this is no time to relax about Washington's penchant for red ink. The country has spent more on programs than it has collected in taxes for 31 out of the last 35 years. Going into debt is the easy way out in Washington, and they've been doing it for years.
