Our two party system often means that the choice of candidate does not closely match one's political views. This describes how I feel about McCain and Obama. As a conservative, my core political values include a belief in personal responsibility and limited government. Many competing ideas of the best way to organize society have been theorized and put into practice. All of them have flaws. The United States has been the most successful form of government in history. It is centralized enough to maintain a cohesive nation, while delegating much authority to states, counties, and cities. Americans are free to persue their dreams. Hard work and dedication bring success. John McCain is more likely to limit the run away expansion of federal government. I will get to keep more of my hard earned money to use as I see fit. America is great because of it's citizens and the system that allows them to succced and fail. Obama believes in a socialist form of government that penalizes financial rewards in order to redistribute wealth towards a utopian goal of equal outcome that has never been achieved in our earth's history. He worships at the alter of government that strives to be the ultimate nanny state.
