How can one vote Republican?

A semi-literate (at best)president, the worst economy in a generation, double-digit inflation (going back to October or November 07, folks, I have the numbers), old guys who have been around hanging on to power and money (and FOR money) since the Nixon or Ford administrations (Cheney, Rumsfeldt, etc.), complete disregard, arrogance, and ignorance for the world and the world community (United Nations included), a war we started on our own with hidden costs everywhere and thousands of dead and tens of thousands of highly injured, mutilated soldiers (boys, in fact, mostly) to care for for decades (they would be dead in fact in any war before this one), a candidate, older than any other, who promised another 100 years of that war, does not know how many houses he has (and he has seven anyway). Regardless of the respect owed John McCain for his personal strength and experience, John, it's time to go enjoy Cindy's money and let's move on to repairing the damage done in eight years.

And on the other side, a bright, articulate guy who can get rid of a whole lot of that old stuff that got us into our mess (with a stolen election in 2000 to begin with).

But just because he is only half-white, people will come out of the woodwork to vote against him. Even Newsweek estimated that among Hillary's former voting democrats, at least 6% will not vote for a black man.
And we should re-elect another white, Anglo, rich, white guy?

And we can't even guarantee proper minimal education and vaccination for every child in this country; we do not have even minimal decent medical support or coverage for every American. But we have the greatest number of millionaires in the world (and quite a lot of the billionaires), we use the greatest amount of resources, etc., etc..

This is not the America I knew and chose, this is not the America the world needs, this is not even the America WE OURSELVES need!!!!
