The presidential election this year has left much to be desired. America has only three choices still left to choose from, and by next month, if not sooner, that number will be down to just two. None of the remaining choices, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama or John McCain, seem to measure up to the pen ding task at hand when President Bush leaves office next January. The nation is left with a junior US Senator from Illinois who rivals motivational speakers; an ex-First Lady and an elder statesman, who may not be able to complete even a four year term in office. One has to wonder how either of these three choices can manage two wars and also lead the charge to improve a slumping economy. At least two of the choices want to "bring the troops home", while the other candidate wants to remain in the region, some say for another 100 years.
In a nation of so many talented men and women, one has to ask how did we come to this stage where the only three choices left standing have nothing in common with the likes of Clint Eastwood, a plain trustworthy individual who doesn't speak out of the sides of his mouth and someone our terrorist enemies wouldn't dare to cross? Where are all the decent, plain-speaking men and women hiding when their nation obviously needs a leader who stands tall and speaks the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Seems all we get with the remaining three choices is a different name but the same flavor, albeit packaged differently.
