President.

Elections are coming up. And as we get down to crunch time, candidates have a tendency to resort to measures of campaigning that really bring out the worst in people. Also, if truly taken in perspective, lowers the reputation of each candidate.

For example: John Mccain (Or his campaign staff) came up with the brilliant idea for an advertising campaign to compare Paris Hilton and Brittney Spears...to Barrack Obama. Now. While I am an Obama fan, I find this particular bit of advertising to be childish and hurtful to Mccain's image. Unfortunately, the vast majority of American voters who don't know jack shit nothing, are going to be voting because of characteristics and letting bad characteristics sway their decision.

Barack Obama will lose votes because he is young, inexperienced, and is a bit of a wussy. Not only that but he trumps the race card every oppertunity he gets, which kind of makes him seem like an arrogant ass. John Mccain is a saggy old man, who's bitter at the world because he was a POW in North Vietnam. Which he also trimps in every oppertunity he gets which makes HIM seem like an arrogant ass. Unfortunately, Mccain will most likely be hurting his image than helping it with the release of his campaign ad in an attempt to devalue the image of Obama.

And unfortunately. What I wrote above is ALL of what the majority of voters will see and base their vote upon. It's ridiculous.

On a lighter note: George Bush is doing his best to save face as he exits the White House. And he's doing a pretty decent job. Recently, Bush compromised with North Korea by taking North Korea's name off of the "Terrorist Nation" list in exchange with North Korea dismantling it's main nuclear reactor. Strategically, this is a huge step foreword in American-Korean policy as before this, America has given no ground or compromise when dealing with North Korea. Furthermore, in light of the Olympics, Bush has begun cornering China over their human rights violations, a touchy subject with the Bush administration because up until now, they've been too diplomatically tied up to make any moves on China over their rights violations.
