| NJ5 said: I'm European. A few weeks ago, I researched a bit on the main candidates' stances. The only republican I dared to check was Mccain, and even he seemed batshit insane regarding some issues (calling for Hollywood to self censor themselves, comparing guns to violent movies, wants more death penalty). However, he certainly seemed more likeable than Bush. Regarding democrats, Obama and Clinton seemed very similar in their opinions, but Obama FTW. PS: Doesn't Clinton want to censor violent movies/games?? |
I'm supporting Obama over Clinton for essentially one reason. He spoke out against the invasion of Iraq from the very beginning.. in fact, he made a statement in 2002 outlining all the things which are happening now. Clinton supported the war and now claims she was duped and that mistakes have been made. I want a president with sound judgment who cannot easily be swayed to make catastrophic blunders. Clinton's excuse just isn't good enough.
She isn't exactly calling for censorship of games and movies. She is proposing high fines for people who sell violent video games to minors in a desperate attempt to pander to parents who feel like they're too busy to raise their own kids. Unfortunately, Obama is not too much better on this matter.
