Okay

Here it goes

OBAMA is for Change for a Better Economy, Better Tax-Cuts, Better Education, Health Care for all, Renewable Energy "The Pickens Plan", Ending Iraq War Responsibly, Go After Bin Laden, Keeping Jobs Here, and Rewarding College Students who Perform Community Service.

MCCAIN is More of the Same Support Bush's Policies 90% of the Time wants to keep us in Iraq, wants to Ignore Afghanistan, wants more Oil Drilling in Alaska That's why he picked Sarah Palin, Keep On Shipping Jobs to China, Continue the Failed Economic, Educational and Health Care Nightmares Created Bush Administration, Overall 4 more Years of the Last 8 Years of Misery and Anger.

Obama's platform is tax tax tax and more taxation right into socialism!  McCain's platform is keeping us safe from our enemies, keeping us from taxation and growing a stronger economy.  He  and Palin have the experience and intelligence to do just that!

I think you can get the Obama speech on his website. He covered everything. This week the republican have their convention. I am a democrat & cannot stand to watch them but if you can then watch their convention. The democratic convention was spectacular.
