from what i know of there policies, Obama would be far better than Bush or Mccain

In what ways would you think he would be far better? Can you name what makes his policies better? I want to know why you think that.

 

What I would like is for those who want to vote for McCain to tell me what they think makes McCain or his policies better.Can you tell me why you think John McCain would make a better president?

Things i find better?

Tax breaks.

John McCain for the middle class family around $2,700.

Barak Obama for the Middle Class family around $1,000.

(Though if his healthcare plan passes it will fine parents who can't afford healthcare when they go to hostpials. What people don't talk about is that it's the middle class and "higher poor" that can't afford healthcare by and large.)

Economics

John McCain, vows to stop earmarks and wasteful spending. Wants legislation that makes the congerss have 3/5ths approval to raise taxes. In otherwords it will keep needless spending down even more.

Barak Obama, wants to raise taxes and put up a commision that can take money away from oil companies because they deem they made too much money. (How would that even work?). Oil companies may be making too much money and doing a lot of profiteering. If so... stop them with laws. Not some random commison that can just take money away because it seems like they are making to much... that's just a poor precedent.

The taxes on big companies will mostly just get pushed down the line to the American people.  Trickledown economics don't work often... but trickledown taxes work all the time.

The enviroment.

Barak Obama supports corn based ethanol. Which doesn't really have any enivormental benfits and is tagged by the UN as one of the biggest reasons for the global food crisis.

War in Iraq.

John McCain wants a slow withdrawl based on progress.

Obama wants a pullout based on a timetable yet says he'll go back in if the Iraqi's can't handle it themselves. This to me seems like a gamble that if failed could extend the war.

Foreign policy

John McCain wants a "League of Democracys" to discuss stuff... basically a new Nato

Obama says he will unilaterally send troops in soverign nations if it fits the US needs.

Things I find worse.

Abortion

McCain is Pro Life, while Barak Obama is "Semi-choice" believes in abortion but still believes abortion rights should be curtailed a bit.

 

So... McCain is better for the middle class, and better for the enviroment by the numbers. Though I suppose the rest is up for debate on how you feel about stuff.

 

Oh boy I would not vote but flee to Canada.  (I am biased because I would do that anyway).

I guess I would vote McCain on what you wrote but what is McCain plan to do about the enviroment?
