There are many different types of jobs and severe as well as minor problems that the next president of the united states is going to have to deal with. As of right now I believe that Obama will be able to better serve this country. McCain's campaign has recently been know the "stretch the truth" or even avoided answering certain questions. On the other hand Obama's campaign has not been trying to conceal any unjust acts and will tell you truth, sometimes even at his own expense. It also appears that the McCain campaign has become more desperate, stooping down to tactics such as personal attacks toward Obama, while Obama resists the temptations to strike down on Senator McCain. The next president will face problems with our falling economy, as well as the problems flaring up in Iraq and Afghanistan. They will deal with a rising unemployment rate and also problems dealing with energy.
One bias example is that they quote all of McCain's benefitial quotes but will show faults in Obama's plans. Another example is they are showing that the writer is pro-republican coming down the democrat party by talking about all of Bush's faults and problems within the democratic party.
5 STATS:
1. In August 2000, 89 percent of Americans said the economy was doing well, according to a Los Angeles Times poll. I find this interesting because our economy is in a recession.
2. Bush's budgets have added $1.7 trillion to the national debt. This stat is significant because it shows how easy it is to get to debt.
3. Today, 82 percent of Americans say the economy is doing badly. I also find this interesting because just a couple years ago that 82 percent of people would have said we had a good economy. Just before Bush was elected.
4. Oil prices have set records due to global demand and tensions in the Middle East. We go to war with them even though they have such a dramatic impact on how we live
5. The cost of filling the tank of a Chevrolet Suburban by $62, to $131. This is an interesting statistic just because it shows the real affect of rising gas prices.
