Right now the presidential race is heating up and in both parties there are pretty much two front runners that the primary’s will come down to. First for the democrats the two candidates that are still in it are Obama and Clinton. I don’t really like either of them but I really don’t want Clinton to be our next president so I guess that I am more in favor of Obama. On the other side of the spectrum we have the Republican part and the two front runners there are McCain and Huckabee. I don’t really like Huckabee that much because he seems very religious and I am not sure that that attitude is what this nation needs right now. I do really like McCain but I am afraid that he is too old, but I think that he can really change around this country and thats what I want to see. The only problem is that if Obama is chosen to be the democratic candidate and he runs against McCain then I think that Obama will win. Because of this you would think that I would like it if Clinton won the democratic ticket for the fact that I don’t think that she can beat McCain, but I really don’t want Hillary to win so I’m at a draw. What I did hear from some of my relatives was that there was talk of getting rid of the IRS. If they did this then there would be a ten percent sales tax on everything but I think that it would be worth it. I also heard that if we did this then the country would be out of debt in something crazy like four years. This sounds ridicules to me but anythings possible. The only problem that I would have with this is that all of the accountants in this country would be out of a job, however it would e for the better good.
