I don´t know what has come over me but I am eating up the news everywhere I can get them. I don´t have any property to speak of so I have nothing really to lose here in the credit crunch but I am interested in knowing exactly how it will all go. Those who know me, know I am a socialist and I am at a loss of words to understand what sort of history of brainwashing has prompted Americans to think that socialism or the extreme version of communism is some sort of tool of the devil. I must be clear to all parties concerned right now, that capitalism DOES NOT WORK and the Frankenstein monster Wall Street and all investment banks all over the world have created is out of control.
I watched the vice-presidential candidates debate at 1am Iceland time on Thursday night and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am happy to see that most Americans saw through the folksy bullshit coming out of Sarah Palin´s mouth and have called her out on dodging the questions. Most alarming of all to me was that she thinks the solution to energy dependency on oil is to drill for more in America. It´s more of the same if Americans vote for this lot. Joe Biden was cool calm and collected and showed an understanding and discipline towards the conductor that evening.
I must admit, I have been slow to make up my mind of Barrack Obama and I really prefered Hillary to him. I do think Obama has had too much hype on him for my taste but Biden sold me on his candidacy, or maybe it was Palin who got me off McCain. I really thought McCain was an okay guy as far as Republicans go and I really think experience is needed at this time but him choosing Palin for what must be purely decorative reasons has put me firmly in the corner of the democrats.
Come on America! Vote correctly! Vote My Way! Vote Democratic!
