I know some found my endorsement of Pres. Elect Obama to be less then honest, but it is actually how I feel. I want him to be successful and thus end the rift that still lives in the dark corners of this country. However, I still have my doubts. The chief of staff he has picked is a partisian politician. It's okay, just don't act like you are a bipartisian guy, then surround yourself with partisians.
I want the new administration to be successful internationally and have economic success at home, unlike many Democrats who believe what is bad for America is good for their party, I want America to be strong and successful first and then my politics second. However, I don't want peace by weakening our power and influence internationally. I don't believe that many of the campaign's issues will be successful in a weakened economy. I also don't believe their economic plan will do anything to improve our economy and only natural forces will revive it.

I want a successful President Obama
I know some found my endorsement of Pres. Elect Obama to be less then honest, but it is actually how I feel. I want him to be successful and thus end the rift that still lives in the dark corners of this country. However, I still have my doubts. The chief of staff he has picked is a partisian politician.

McCain uses the "S" Word to discribe Obama and commits Hypocracy
"The American people continue to learn more about Barack Obama. Now we know that the slogans 'change you can believe in' and 'change we need' are code words for Barack Obama's ultimate goal: 'redistributive change.' In a previously uncovered interview from September 6, 2001, Barack Obama expressed his regret that the Supreme Court hadn't been more 'radical' and described as a 'tragedy' the Court's refusal to take up 'the issues of redistribution of wealth.' - McCain
WC - I believe McCain is correct that Sen. Obama has socialist dreams, however, McCain is no better. As the news unfolds on the Senator's comments in 2001 on the courts and that they should have ruled for redistribution of income along with civil rights, he has also told us that he befriended a variety of people in college including Marxist, John McCain is out telling us how he wants to use 300 billion of the 700 billion "Rescue" package to help stabilize those bad mortgages. Isn't that "Socialism" too? Or at least "spreading the wealth" as Sen. Obama has famously said to "Joe the Plumber".
Sen. Obama is at least an egalitarian in that he does want political, social and civil rights to be equal for all but the added economic equality is what sets him apart from most Americans. Economic equality is the bases of socialism, but unlike a strict definition which would be to have a central government own and administrate the means of production, the American socialist movement is more about redistribution of income via the tax code. However, the last 6 weeks has showed us that people will accept, more likely not understand, that the preferred stocks the U.S.. government is receiving in exchange for cash is ownership.
Socialism over the next 4 years will increase under either administration, what we have to too out for is a permanent infiltration of the government into the private sector for the purpose of economic equality.
UPDATE: The congressional record shows that Sen. Obama wants an egalitarian society for even immigrants! (Opinion) (Congressional Record)
