John McCain is the real affirmative action candidate.
When he continues to mention the fact he was a POW for reason to support him, he's basically saying do not back me on my ideals and policies. Do not back me on my positions and vision. No, back me because I was POW.

The real affirmative action candidate is not Barack Obama, it's John McCain, who uses his POW status as the only reason to vote for him.

3. I hate to defend McCain in any way, but at least he's had a much longer political career than Bush.
Bush is the TRUE "affirmative action" President, a man who'd probably be a 62-year-old convenience store worker now if not for his rich, connected daddy. Our current Dear Leader has done almost nothing for or by himself in his entire six decades of life.

4. You think he could work a cash register?
I really think our current pResident could best use his job skills guarding the trailer where people drop off Goodwill donations. He may have an Ivy League edumication, but his mental prowess seems to have deteriorated in the last few years.
