She is qualified to be president of the United States of America. She’s easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America. And, quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me. (Joe Biden while campaigning At a town hall in Nashua, N.H.)
Wow! I suppose this is a wake up call that the ‘Barry’ should have chosen Hillary Clinton as his running mate instead of Joe Biden. After seeing a twenty percentage point drop between ‘Barry’ and ‘John’, I would prefer not to worry if gender choice has any bearing on this difference in spread. I would like to suggest that if the Democratic Party ‘really’ wants to win, then maybe ‘Barry’ could dump ‘Joe’ in an unprecedented ‘change’ to campaign for the president of the United States with Hillary Clinton as his running mate instead.
I would like to forget his skin color, his shady past and religious affiliations and the fact that ‘Barry’ stammers (like when GWB doesn’t speak from the heart) during tough interviews. I would like to forget the past misdeeds and mistakes from either side of the party, including that noise behind the trooper investigation going on with Palin’s husband. Noone is perfect. Noone is experienced enough to hold office this ‘high’. Noone should feel attacked for being on the ‘unpopular’ side of any issue.
Anyway, I cannot reasonably predict who will be the next president of the United States and if the choice of Vice Presidents would make any difference on campaigning. I do know that beauty bears more weight regardless of talent, experience and knowledge. For the sake of example, ‘American Idol’ on a televised programming had lots of talented singers and not one of the few finalists are buck ugly. This is the truth. This is the reality that charismatic figures will make history. It’s sad, really, that ‘who y’all know’ matters more than ‘what y’all know’.
All I ‘know’ is that the Electoral College has everything under control and that the over glamorized version of a popularity contest won’t matter in the end. Once again, Hillary Clinton won the popularity vote; yet the Electoral College voted for Barack Obama instead. I know Hillary is not that ugly although she does possess knowledge and explains issues better than ‘Barry’ during the debates. It’s entertainment to me to hear the bickering both on cable programmings and on the air waves.
So once again, I know the voters are not dumb. I know that the voters are not fully informed. If everyone were rich and if everyone knew the loopholes, there would be this ‘ideal’ unity and less divisiveness brought about the ‘changes’ by the most liberal thinkers of the times. I’d save my pennies for rainy days in the here and now instead of worrying about the future, the economy, the war and other issues that don’t seem to affect my immediate station in life.
