Obama's inexperience in perspective

[busara]

If there was a vote to abolish all taxes, Americans would come out in droves to vote in favor of it.

So, yes, sometimes, Americans don't know what's best for them.

so you take the most extreme example. and believe it or not, americans know that without taxes they get no govt benefits. they arent that stupid. but when it comes to things like energy policy or wars, the politicians SHOULD listen to the public.

It is bad when politicians change their positions to favor popular opinion when their refined position is the wrong position.

No not airing commericals in America. Say by vetoing us in the UN or building an international coalition in opposition of American foreign policy....

the wrong position? who decides when it is wrong? you? or hindsight?

and have you stopped to think that maybe if the rest of the world builds a coalition to oppose american foreign policy, that maybe our foreign policy is bad for everybody? could the US actually be wrong!?!?

Of course McCain has more experience, but he lacks better judgement. I'll go with a guy who has little experience rather than a guy who's been doing it wrong for 30 plus years.

Any doubt we'd be at war with Russia already if McCain was president?

I have every doubt. McCain's not a warmongerer. You have no reason to believe such.
