Both candidates are economically weak -- as is our current president. Both candidates have bought into the ideas of a socialist economy to greater or lesser degrees. I'm a conservative, and yes, I'm saying that about McCain too. Honestly, I think it may be impossible for the government to pull us out of this recession. I'm not sure there's a person oout thehre that could fix this problem through a presidency. Only brilliant minds inside our captalistic backbone will be able to do that -- and they'll have to do it in some different way than they've ever thought of before. It will take innovation, but because we still have a relatively free enterprise system in place and some of the greatest business minds at our disposal, I believe there's a good chance it will happen. If not, it's because the giovernment prevented it. That's all the government can do at this point -- enable or prevent, not cause. The election will have to be determined on moral and ethical issues, not economic. Unfortunately, both candidates are pretty weak there, too, but I think theere is a clear leader in this regard. Whether you agree with my selection or not, make your choice on morals and ethics, not on economics. jb As badly as we need it to be, economic stance cannot be the determining factor in the 2008 presidential election.
