I've been doing a lot of research on the candidates lately since this election will be significant to the future direction of this country for many years to come. I have been amazed by the amount of spin and outright lies that regrettably have been spit out by the Obama camp - my original choice of vote. Information that comes directly from Obama's own book shows his whole life has been influenced by radical left people such as Saul Alinsky (declared proud communist), Willian Ayers (domestic terrorist and left wing radical), Reverend Wright (America hater), etc..
As well, Obama has been recently close to and in constant touch with Raila Odinga of Kenya who is responsible for over 1500 deaths this past year that could be called ethnic cleansing. Odinga is from the same Kenyan tribe that Obama claims is also his heritage and Odinga claims to be a cousin of Obama's. (source: African Press International). AFI also questions Obama's judgement here since Odinga is anti-American/pro Al Queda and states that he will end Kenya's cooperation with the west with regard to Islamic terrorism.
With regard to Obama's economic plan, it is an outright lie that 95% of working people in the USA will get a tax cut, since 40% of these people do not pay income tax at all. (source US IRS) This means that Obama will be sending money to these people who have not paid anything into the tax pot. That, folks, is flat out socialism/communism/marxism no matter how you try to spin it. I cannot see myself supporting bigger government, higher taxes, and less incentive to work or create new enterprises. This means that I have to vote for the lesser of two evils and that means that I will be voting for John McCain as will a good number of my fellow former democrats.
