America's Much Needed Leader

So the March 4 primaries have passed, but it was during the days leading up to thee events that we were introduced to this Hillary Clinton ad.


Alright. On this blog I don't try to write to bash the candidates, what I try to do is focus on the things that are or should be an issue in their campaigns. So in the video above, we are told that we should elect a leader who knows the leaders of the world and knows the military. My question from viewing the video is whether or not Hillary knows the military. Does she know it in the sense that she knows how to be the leader in charge of the military, or is it more she's aware this country has a military? Other than that the choice rests in your hands.

Not long after the video hit the air, Barack Obama's campaign team hit back with this response.

Now did you pick up on anything sort of weird? If I'm understanding this correctly, and by correctly I mean noticing a message other than vote for Obama, this country is supposed to vote for Obama because he had the courage to oppose the war. Well good for him! Obama had the guts to say, "I don't agree with this plan." But how does that keep me safe? This war on terror, this war being fought to eliminate the threat made against this country, is happening to protect the lives of not only the American people but for the people of the world. Of course I can see the sides why the war should end, but I don't think being able to oppose something is a reason to elect someone into office. After all, Obama was outnumbered.

Now here's my response to the two videos above.



Oh yeah, there's America's much needed leader.
