As promised, my update on Obama's speech:

During his speech, he talked about what he wanted to change. He said that off-shore drilling is only a temporary solution,and that we should look to other sources of energy. He wants to invest resources in clean coal, natural gas, and safe nuclear power. If he becomes president, he will set a ten year goal on being completely independant from Middle East petroleum. Obama also wants to invest in a new generation of teachers, with higher pay and higher expectations. He said that he knows that this will cost money, and that he will go through the budget and cut programs that aren't working well, making room for the new ones.

Now on to vice president choices.

McCain and the governer of Alaska (?): He made a VP good choice for the election, but not for the country. Since he picked a woman, some Hillary supporters will help him, but she has next to no experience in foreign affairs. There is a higher chance that McCain will have a medical emergency and she will have to take over. With next to no foreign affairs knowledge, it would be a disaster if she took over in the state we are in.

Obama and Joe Biden: He made a good choice even though there is little chance of Obama having a medical emergency and Biden taking over.

McCain will most likely argue that Obama has had little foreign affairs experience, but Obama lived in another country and has traveled abroad. That practilly spells foreign affairs experience!

So again, who do you want to be the next president? I will also provide coverage of the Republican National Convention.
