But Mr McCain is my preferred choice as President of The United States of America. Mr McCain is more proactive, and more of a positive 'force'. Senator Obama would make an admirable President, but he has not much experience, as a government functionary, being of such a young age. Mr McCain is more impressive. I am sure, that Mr Obama would make an impressive President, at a later stage in his career.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The people of the Republic of America has told the incoming elected that this Union need to change the way we do the work of the people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One vote, one man has changed our country, so lets start this Change with change. &amp;nbsp;Not the old political system, but change for the people of the Republic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first pary of the year Barack Obama and Teddy Kennedy were at the state of the Union Report and Teddy didn't know what to do with this guy next to him. &amp;nbsp;See Barack was standing when the rest of our party was sitting on there hands. &amp;nbsp;Well , Teddy looked at Barack, and he looked like his brothers John and Robert, but Obama was standing like John and Robert would, this got Teddy upset. &amp;nbsp; What to do? &amp;nbsp;Should I sit on my hands with the rest of my party or go along with my new buddy and trun on this old party. &amp;nbsp; Teddy, didn't know what to do, but he know that this guy looked like he should be President, just like Johnny. &amp;nbsp; Oh, this old party needs change and he is my new buddy, &amp;nbsp;I'll stand with him.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With in days Teddy asked Barack over to his house for a BBQ. &amp;nbsp;This feels good, Teddy said, we need change in this old party.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now Barack is asking you for your help with changing the Old Congress to the New Congress. &amp;nbsp; Not the old lip service of the past, but a real change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lets get behing our President Elect and move on past the old bull and start working for the good of the Republic, the people.&lt;/p&gt;
