Having lived in the U.S. for a few years, I have to say that this year's presendential election is one of the most unique ones that i've seen. I've got to say that it's well publicied all over the world. Here in Indonesia, it's big news..Why's that, well, simple actually..One word..One man actually, that is Barrack Obama..Said he went to elementary school here..in Jakarta..SD Menteng..How amazing is that..You know? Just because of that small fact, his elementary school that is, the Indonesian news channel are all for Obama..Obama..Obama..
Well, myself, I think he's OK. Especially compared to McCain..Especially after seeing the presedential debates that have gone on, including the last one that, based on the CNN Polls, was won by Barrack Obama, 58% to 31%. That's a pretty big loss from a man who promised to kick Barrack Obama's "you know who" on the last election..Anyway..I don't like McCain's way of campaigning. How much more negatif can you be McCain? Haha..I don't think it's a very smart move trying to gain back voters with negatif campaigning like he's doing. A little off the subject when debating McCain is. Just keeps coughing out negatif facts about Obama when he should be thinking about his country that's going into an economic plunge (more about this later). Sad really. He wants to continue the war in Iraq when it's clear that the U.S. isn't getting anything but dead militants and resistance from countries like Iran and North Korea who I think are very capable of taking the U.S. down. That's just continuing the horrible job started by a horrible man, George W. Bush. The reason? He wants to bring the troops back in victory and not in defeat. What is that? Haven't they lost already. Dead militants going down everyday. For what? Saddam? Osama? Saddam's dead and Osama? Obviously not in Iraq is he. How stupid can you get sending your own troops to their death beds?
And how about Obama? Well, from the debates, people seem to think that he'll do a better job with the economy, health care, and taxes. That's cute. Will he really be able to do it? I don't know. Doesn't really matter to me anyway. Not in the U.S. anymore. But, one thing that matters is that if Obama does get picked, he better not forget the country that raised him in his few years here. He better not forget his surname either. Hussein is it? Hope he treats the Islamic world with a little more respect than that coward George W. Bush. It doesn't matter really. If he messes with us, Iran will be ready with their nuclear..haha..
Well..I guess that's all for now..Next topic? The economy..haha.
