The people have spoken

By judging from the past few weeks, it is clear that we the British people have spoken.

We have made sure that, no longer, we shall fear the government. But from now the government is to fear us. It is to work for us, and not in the interest of the few.

I congratulate you all, for what has been achieved in the past few weeks, it is quite simply, revolutionary.

We have shown to all the world, what people with will, people with power can do.

I hope we continue to challenge, to question our current and future governments. I hope we continue to be patriots. Only then, will superior progress be brought to us.

Why I am swinging towards McCain at the moment.

No bankrupting Universal healthcare. It will most definetly cost more than Iraq, and increase government in markets, they will have to print more money to fund healthcare when the boomers start retiring in masses, more inflation, more pain for the little guy.

Once you have universal healthcare it is hard to go back to market based systems, because the baby boomers will never let it happen so as long as they control the majority of the vote.

He hopes to be finished with Iraq by 2013, I can cope with that, I would like it to be earlier but its a compromise.

He wants to get help pakistan get rid of the training grounds in their tribal areas. (in my opinion this is a very important issue, India receives a lot of terrorist attacks from people who are trained in these areas. And nutjobs from the UK go there for training.

I know he is pro-torture, but being tortured himself, I can only respect his decision and I can't really criticise him as his first hand experience will trump my 2nd hand experience.

He makes slurs to his wife, doesn't keep in touch with people in vietnam, he visits dying democrats and old friends in hospitals.

But I couldn't care what he does with his personal life and it is none of my business. All I care about is that he is a good leader and he has policies which are in the long term interest of his country.

At the moment he is fulfilling my self-interest, and my self-interest is that America remain strong and not have fiscal liabilities which she cannot afford.

At the end of the day I think Obama is an amazing candidate and he is truly the change which America needs. But to me he is inaccessible simply due to the nature of the long term liabilities in his policies.

However, I understand, if McCain does not fulfil your self-interests as your concerns may lie elsewhere.
