[QUOTE="Katafran"][QUOTE="duxup"][QUOTE="Katafran"]Agreed.
Furthermore, I love how everyone chooses Obama because he's going to save the day and all the poor people, yet he opts out of public financing for his campain so he can spend the most money ever spend on a presidential campain. Why not use that money to "help" the people who are losing their homes?

That has to be one of the silliest arguments made on OT that I've ever read.
How so? It's not like he'd lose any media coverage. He could keep what was necessary for travel(which is a hell of a lot for a private jet) and donate the rest.
My point was the I don't want my money going to those people who made mistakes and he doesn't either.
Even if the due's platform was "save the day and all the poor people" (is that like from The Nickelodeon News Network or something?) clearly you have more control over furthering your polices as president than you do with all the campaign money raised .... pretty much ever.
Well, that was my assumption on his policy since he hasn't really told us about it himself.
And I'm not saying he should not run for president. I'm saying that it's a bit hypocritical to spend all this money on something that won't help anyone and tout how we should all have our taxes raised to help people.
