I'm not american, nor do I live in america, so I suppose I don't really have much say in the matter - but because the the British Labour Government is the US's lapdog and butt-buddy and the fact that I have friends in america, it does affect me.

Why, oh why are people still adamant that McCain will win? Even just judging by the fact that the elections between different democratic candidates were treated like "who's going to be the president?" as opposed to "who's going to represent the democratic party", it's obvious that McCain's not going to get in.

Let's look at the two, presidential candidates, shall we?

Obama:
- Is Anti-war.
- Is Equallist.
- Would be a milestone in american presidential history.
- Seems to be more open to superstitious swaying.
-- The fact that his surname rhymes with Osama is being used against him.
-- The fact that he bears some resemblance to a man predicted by Nostradamus to, basically, be a milestone in political history and bring world peace shortly after the turning of the millennium, after a long and pointless war is being used for him (although, not by him or his affiliates)
- has a good idea of the world within and without america.
- is well like by people outside america, and thus will bring much better foreign relations.

McCain on the other hand:
- Is pro-war
- Is a bigot
- Is pretty much just a clone of George W. Bush
- Barely has any idea of what the world is like outside america. (despite being in the military, which usually distorts a person's views as opposed to enhancing them)
- Is seen by people outside the US as a clone of George W. Bush, and not much liked either.

It's like trying to compare John Lennon or Wilfred Owen with Charles Manson or Jessie Pope.
