Obama Opinions?

[glypo]

People don't consider policies though.

People seem to think Obama is the best thing ever, but some of his policies are a bit naff. Obama has talked against free trade, which should be a massive worry for us and the rest of the world. History has shown (Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act) that policies against free trade are very bad. The last time it happened it lead to the worst economic crisis ever and then the start of WW1. McCain is a big supporter of free trade, so with him there would not be this issue.

If I was an American, I probably would have voted for Obama. He has better tax policy for most. And Palin would have really put me off, I wouldn't have been able to trust a jesus nut like her. The world was not created 10,000 years ago, dinosaurs do exist and evolution is proven science - not a weak theory. Oh yeah, it’s a woman’s right if she has an abortion, not her decision. If McCain wasn’t a little too old, or there was a different VP nominee I think McCain would have been the better candidate.

We are facing a big economic crisis and now the president of the richest country is someone who has really come out of nowhere and has so little political experience. I just hope this doesn’t turn bad in a few years, or even months. Neither candidate is perfect, far from it, so I can’t see why everyone is so happy about Obama? I would have voted Obama probably if I was an American. But as a Brit, I can’t help but fear maybe McCain would be the better choice for the world and its economy.

Who knows, time will tell.
