Obama: 'I Accept Your Nomination'

Trying to be a superhero

If you go to this website, you will read what Obama is promising us if he becomes our president. He says that he will "cut taxes for nearly all working-class families, end the war in Iraq and break America's dependence on Mideast oil within a decade." He is going to end up raising taxes on upper-income Americans to help pay for expanded health care and other domestic programs. So he wont be helping us that much in the end. Obama said that McCaine was "a good man who 'just doesn't get it'"

Honestly, I am mad at Obama for criticizing McCaine and saying that he doesn't get it. Why is Obama criticizing McCaine for not seeing situations the same way he does. They are two completely different people. This makes me wonder if Obama will say that us americans "just don't get it", when we dont agree with Obama. When Obama is saying that he promises us that he will cut taxes for nearly all working-class families, I think of what that will effect and where the money to make up for the lost money will come from. Will he lower taxes for the people that are'nt doing so well and raise taxes for families that can support themselves like mine. I mean, if that were to happen, my family would become very angry and that wouldnt be fair since those who dont know how to manage their money get a break and those who chose wisely are expected to pay more. When Obama says that he will end the war in Iraq, it worries me what might happen, like another attack similar to 9/11. I am not sure how Obama is going to decrease the need of oil from the mideast but he can try. He is trying to save the world and fix everybody's needs, like a superhero. But he's not.
