If you mean manage peace and keep an able military for defense, than I don't.

Keeping an able military (welfare state, health system or infrastructure) requires sound economic policy.

In a debate on sound economic policy, the word "Obama" should not even be alluded too.

 

 

Actually, the health of the economy has very little to do with who the president is.  If it did then we would be in real big trouble no matter which one of the two were elected.

To sum it up:

 

Strengths:

McCain: Maverick moderate will return once the election is over whether he wins or loses, world powers like him, good understanding of workings of government. Very understanding of the world as it is.

Obama: Good talker, world powers like him more, gets americans motivated (biggest strength).

Weaknesses:

McCain: Stuck in his ways, international realist views are unrealistic, if he wins there are going to be a lot of pissed republicans in 4 years.

Obama: Speeches are naive, international positions are unworkable with congress, people are going to be disappointed in 4 years when US isn't turned into a European country.

 

Both are better than Bush, because they are not complete idiots and both are very able to run the government with out running it into the ground.
