It will be interesting to see how the Presidential election will turn out.
Here has presented a pretty darn good argument for McCain and I'd say brovo Randy!
You know, I've learned something from my Conservative friends. It's this.... and the video you placed here showes this amazingly well.
It's way better to teach people how to work with finances then to give them what they cannot handle. It's good to help the extremely needy people, feed and cloth the poor but why allow people to take out loans they are not going to be able to pay back? Chances are, if people do not know how to steward their finances perhaps they shouldn't be given hundreds of dollars.
I'm all for programs that will fund into the education of children growing up in extreme poverty but I'm not for giving hundreds of dollars to people who will never invest wisely with it.
Wow, it's looking bad.
You said "Chances are, if people do not know how to steward their finances perhaps they shouldn't be given hundreds of dollars."
Or ... in this case, they shouldn't be given loans for hundreds of thousands of dollars :).
It's a powerful argument and it has raised my confidence in McCain for President. I think that video will win the hearts of the moderates for the Republican's and create more votes for McCain.
I'm so disappointed in what I read, even of conservatives (albeit likely from MSM) and the leanings toward a socialist takeover of our economy! If we are free trade, then de-regulate and let free-trade figure out how to solve this mess!

Anyways, I find that the media is biast towards the left wing and so whenever there is something really positive to say about the Republican's that would be hard to find as a result anything negative to say about the Democrats would also be very difficult to see. Regardless if we know this or not, believe it or not, but what I see is that the media is really more controlled then what we think and freedom of speach is slowly being taken away. It's like we have a lot of people reacting to half truth. I'm not saying that this hadn't an error that I've been guilty of because Lord knows that I can be so ignorant. The good thing about this is the fact that I know it, confess it and always open to learning.
I said brovo because you found the video or perhaps somebody brought the video to your attention but anyhoo....
I agree with you 100% and perhaps people can circulate that youtube video because it's a good one!
