The choice this year is one of the easiest ever. If you think the economy is good, we should continue to start preemptive wars, continue to send our children to Iran to fight in a never-ending war and continue to give tax breaks to oil companies, you should vote McCain. He has stated many, many times that he plans to continue those policies.

If you think the economy needs some help, Americans deserve have health care, we should give tax breaks to companies that keep jobs in the U.S., bring our sons and daughters home from Iran, and restore the constituion, you should vote Obama.
