What if things were turned around?

My friend Big Jim, an Alaskan, sent me this e mail.
I credit this whole post to him.
God bless his heart.(AND America, too. Yah betcha)

What if the presidential candidates were in each others shoes for a moment?

Like that movie where the mother and daughter switch places for a day?
Remember that movie? If you do then you are old enough to vote and should be voting soon...
Let's begin:

What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard
Law Review?


What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of
his graduating
class?


What if McCain had only married once and Obama was a
divorcee?
What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a
long affair while
he was still married?


What if McCain were still married to the first woman he
said 'I do' to?
What if Obama were the candidate who left his first wife
after she no
longer measured up to his standards?


What if Michelle Obama were a wife who not only became
addicted to pain
killers, but acquired them illegally through her charitable
organization?
What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?


What if Obama were a member of the Keating-5?
(Five US senators accused of corruption in 1989 igniting a major political scandal as
part of the savings and loan scandal in the late 1980's and early 1990's)



What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?
What if McCain were a charismatic,eloquent speaker?


What if Obama was the one who had military experience
that included
discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes?
What if Obama was the one who was known to publicly
display a serious
anger management problem?
What if Michele Obama's family had made their money
from beer
distribution?


What if things were switched around?
Would the country's collective point of view be
different?


What if the Obama had paraded five children across the
stage following the
debate including a 3 month old infant and an unwed, pregnant
teenage
daughter?


Could racism be the culprit??? [This most certainly must
be a rhetorical
question!]

If these questions reflected reality, do you really
believe the election
numbers would be as close as they are?
This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and
minimizes
positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative
qualities in
another when there is a color difference.


You are The Boss... which team would you hire?


With America facing historic debt, two wars, stumbling
health care, a
weakened dollar, all-time high prison population, mortgage
crises, bank
foreclosures, etc.


Educational Background:


Obama:
Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a
Specialization in
International Relations.
Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude


Biden:
University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in
Political Science.

Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester
North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism

Education isn't everything, but this is about the two

the land as well as our standing in the world.
