Vote for me..

yes...in my utopian world..i would have run for President of the United States of America, and probably won it too..
but reality presents a stark contrast.. and hence lets see what are the choices the avg american has..
if the basis for comparison is the current 'dork'...even a cabbage with an IQ of -5 would seem a smart choice..
but the standard of this blog demands more rationale, hence i decided to read up some more..
and the more i read, the more i realised my knowledge of let alone the current front runners, but the whole american political system itself was alarmingly pitiful..

based on my elementary reading, i get the feeling that the republican race is for all practical purposes over.. with McCain clearly being the best option.Giuliani has been a pathetic excuse with his "i was mayor during the 7/11".The rest are successfully doing their job of making the numbers.
But with 2 back to back republican terms, i suspect this round belongs to the democrats. And co incidentally thats also where all the action is!

Hillary Vs Obama has been the headlines for quite some time now.
i came across this interesting analogy, which beautifully sums up the situation.
Its a choice between the Dean of the university and the new rookie arts professor.
The Dean is a seasoned veteran. She knows her job well and how to do it. She knows the rules and how to play the game. She does her job more because she has to do it, not out of choice.
while the new prof is a breath of fresh air. Hes different, not just with his ideas and hopes, but hes of african-american origin too! w-o-w...now thats making "different" literal.
its a question of experience versus inexperience...
of cold hearted bitch versus the romantic novice...
of 'easy on the eye' rich new yorker versus the 'lets be different..lets show we're not racist..lets be different' attutude...
of the 'this is how ive been doing it..this is how it will continue to be done" thinker....versus..the" lets try something new" thinker..

the latest polls show Hillary had a good headstart, but Obama has slowly but surely caught up and has now almost managed to only just stay ahead of Clinton.

personally, i cudnt care less who wins....may the best man/woman win...i just hope the new prez does a better job than the current dork.
