[Political Heretic]

It's like all DU is now is a bunch of name calling and personal attacks.

God I even know questions that should be asked in response to the issues I've raised. Maybe I'll just have to discuss them with myself?

"But Political Heretic, if what you say is true, specifically the end where you talk about the shared legacy of neo-liberalist economic policy at home and abroad, what do you see in Obama that convinces you it will be any different? How exactly does he distinguish himself from this trajectory?"

I don't know! Wouldn't it be nice if political candidates running for president had to arrange their cabinets and chief positions before getting elected? I'd love to cast a vote for a candidate based on knowing his or her entire planned administration. Having said that, I already know that both the remaining democratic candidates are moderate. I already know that the campaign platforms of the remaining candidates contain no dramatic differences. Yes there are differences, but having carefully read on the issues for both candidates, the differences are not dramatic. I've eliminated voting third party as an option. So now I HAVE to choose. What criteria should I base my choice on? I feel like it is time for a new person with new connections. I would give anything if an Obama administration did not include the same old Washington players in key positions. I think its time for a change.
