COULD WE BE ABOUT TO STEP INTO THE FRYING PAN? Why We Need To Take The Time To Learn About The Candidates

The list of complaints that we all share about the way our country is, and has been, run is endless. The inadequacies our of national leaders in this age of massive illegal immigration, terrorism, economic downtown, outrageous energy prices, government corruption, and moral degradation…is inexcusable.

But, we are the electorate. We have no one to blame but ourselves.

Today, we stand in the final weeks of preparing for our national election. We have two candidates for President who have more critical blemishes than any two candidates in national Presidential history. Yet, I would propose that we Americans have taken less time to investigate the backgrounds and credentials of these two than we take in deciding on what we’re going to cut from our lives so that we can afford gas.

Both Obama and McCain have skeletons in their closets that you can research easily on the Internet and those skeletons should give everyone pause to think. What about the skeletons that haven’t surfaced? In my opinion, neither of these candidates should ascend to the Presidency, but one of them almost certainly will. So, we have the duty to really, really, really check them out.

One could shrug his shoulders, I suppose, and suggest that Congress can keep the President in check. The plain truth is that Congress, as it exists today, is corrupt, immoral and ineffective. So, I advocate that we are going to have to turn most of them out of office in order to create a new atmosphere of REAL change in Washington that will ensure that whoever is President will not run amuck.

Never before in our history does so much depend on what we Americans do in the next five months. We have a lot of tools at our disposal to get at the facts and reach informed decisions.

Let’s do it.
