Alisa’s disagreement with my assessment about McCain is a good reason to look at the remaining candidates and start theorizing who is the leaser evil. We can assume, with high level of certainty that the major parties candidates will be Obama and McCain and that two additional recognize candidates will be Ralph Nader and Bob […]

I wasn’t McCain’s supporter as it is, but this makes his candidacy a complete disaster:
Mike Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas and defeated contender for the GOP presidential nomination, is currently at the top of John McCain’s short list for a running mate. At least that’s the word from a top McCain fundraiser and longtime […]

Are you familiar with the Nigerian Scam? You should be aware of its newest form:
CONFIDENTIAL/URGENT POLITICAL PROPOSAL
Dear Sir
First we must solicit your confidence in this issue. This is by virtue as being utterly confidential and “top secret”.

Ideally the election process should help voters make an informed decision. The process should expose the different candidates, their experience, values and agenda. In reality the candidates try to disguise their real agenda, and to smooth problematic issues, in order to appeal to as many voters as possible.
I was, naively, hopping that the long primaries […]

The new release of, once classified, documents is a reminder that Presidents can be sane, skillful and avoid being dragged into conflicts all over the world. But instead of a President that will follow the footsteps of Eisenhower that ended the war in Korea and avoided getting involve in Vietnam (or anywhere else), we are […]

I decided to dedicate my lunch break today to Ron Paul’s book signing which was around the corner from where I’m working. I thought that the half hour lunch break will be sufficient and that I can grab something to eat later. How little did I knew.
As soon as I stepped into the store one […]

The big story from yesterday’s Primaries voting in PA is obviously Clinton’s victory. However I was looking with interest at the GOP Primaries’ results. It was expected that Ron Paul’s percentage will be higher, due to less general interest among GOP voters, and therefore the 16% were not surprising. What is surprising, however, is that […]

It is very hard to predict from how one run a political campaign the way they will be once in office. Even if most of the things being said and promised on the campaign trail are sincere, and usually they are not, the realities of the limited abilities and political constraints forces compromises and changes […]

I don’t know what to make of this: One of Obama’s campaign spokesman denied official connection between the campaign and a hebrew blog named “The Barack Obama Blog”. One of the comments for the report, and the denial, is from no other than the editor in chief of the blog platform that host this blog […]
