I agree with you Marty. He's making too many statements about how life will change, but he isn't very specific on what exactly will change or how he will go about making these promised changes happen. I'd rather have User3 as president. He'd still treat you like a serf but at least he always backed up his statements with an overwhelming array of facts.

I personally like some of the policies by both canidates, but neither one 100%. However doesn't congress basically have to approve any of the "changes" either of them promises to make. If Congress doesn't approve it they can promise us the stars, but they still wouldn't be able to deliver it.

If Obama gets in he will pretty much have carte blanche to do whatever he wants. Especially if he does it right away.

McCain would have to finesse anything through congress.

Barker....that would actually be User 2, he is the kinder, gentler more PC of the two Users

He was banned by mistake by a mod that wasn't smart enough to figure out who was who...

I think I've eaten too much of the chocolate easter rabbit that's been in my refrigerator since 2000.

I don't know if he so much changed it, rather just basically ignored it.

And all of those signing statements saying that he wasn't bound to any of the laws that were passed.
