I want to know about the Economy. I can care less about the silly matters that most people use or are swayed by as a distraction.

Politicians wives and pastors, are people and people have their own voices and opinions. And that's just what they are.

I care much more about the "process" that the person who ultimately has to make the decision goes through. With this in mind Barack tends to think, and surround himself in policy making situations with absolute experts. He could go to a buddist priest for salvation and if that's where he finds God then good for him.

I want to know about the Economy.

I've read the candidates plans as well as looked at proponents and opponents of each in equal measure, anything else is sideshow and for those easily entertained and prone to superficial reliance on rumormill data.

OK.

I think the Obama's have some political/economic views that I cannot support.

But she can run for senator of NY and get elected. So, I'm thinkin' if she goes into the military now, does two stints in Afghanistan (knowing her husband will pull everybody out of everywhere almost as soon as she gets there), then moves to NY after she gets an honorable discharge, and gets elected Senator, by 2016, then she'll run for President when Jeb Bush's first term is up, as the president of North America.

I'm just tired of all that the political process entails.

'From the frying pan into the fire'? Is that the sort of change that I should want?
