John McCain Vs. Barack Obama: A Dream Presidential Contest

    (Sorry about photo..some glitch...can't straighten it out)

     An old picture of me, setting up a telephone news conference for former Senator Humphrey, who became a "bridge" between the McGovernites and the rest of the Democratic Party, during the general election of 1972--between George McGovern and Richard Nixon.
    "Moderation in the defense of liberty, is no vice."
    Some of us are sick of the radical end of extreme politics, where, during the general election, each side slimes the other person, with the result that  most American's vote for the lessor of two evils.

    Bill and Hillary got involved with this against Barack Obama prior to the South Carolina Primary.

    It is just a clue to what will happen in the general election.

    To much of the electorate, Senator Barack Obama and Republican Senator John McCain, are heroes, in their own right.

    Each brings a mature understanding of the give and take of life and politics.  Neither candidate is afraid of reaching across the aisle to get the best legislation for the rest of us.

    Hillary and Bill Clinton will bring out the worst "attack dog's" during the general election, and the GOP in response will use every negative against "Bubba and his wife," which will in-turn---once again---turn off the voter.

    I'm going to vote for Barack Obama, because he brings back hope to the political process, and he won't lie, just to get elected.

    I also think it would be wonderful to have two small children running around the Oval Office, again.  It gives the President a healthy perspective before making major decisions on war and peace.

    Senator John McCain, is a real war hero.  His constant bludgeoning while in solitary confinement in a North Vietnam prison camp, for about 5 years, while they kept breaking his shoulder for "acting up" is well documented.

    He is not a "cheap" politician, and would also make his candidacy of "togetherness," not go back to the mud throwing politics of the 1990's.

    Although, neither candidate can control independent committees, which may throw some mud, at least John McCain, and Barack Obama, would stay above the fray.

    I would love to see a McCain-Obama contest in November.

    Thanks for reading:

I agree. I'd like to see a McCain-Obama contest also. It would be a fight for the center. I think Obama being anti war and McCain pro war would give Obama a good edge. I think age and health would be on Obama's side too. But it would be a contest between 2 good men. And we'd break the Bush/Clinton rule.

The 2 small children running around would remind me of the Kennedy Family.

Cool picture of you at work and the job you were doing!
