“Politics of fear” is in f full swing in United States of America these days.
We the people of Europe are overwhelmingly in the column of Mr Obama but our votes do not count and the people who matter in this contest (the American Citizens) are in two minds. Should they vote for Obama to get that feeling of deed well done and free themselves of any guilt that they might have about the treatment of Blacks in America throughout her history or vote for a steady hand like John McCain and get blamed as a racist nation built on the bones of Native Americans.
Both these assertions are a bit extreme as neither Mr Obama is as naïve as being portrayed by the rightwing media like Fox nor Mr McCain a hawk who wants to stay in Iraq for hundred years as being picked on by the Obama team.
Both know that America is a nation built on free market capitalism and democracy, although not the founding stone of the nation, is now firmly rooted among its people. America is a juggernaut which will only change course when its time as an empire runs out like it did for Romans and Greeks before them.
These two leaders can change very little if at all e.g.
America will keep interfering in unstable parts of the world because when it does not, it gets blamed for not doing so.
America will remain pro Israel as no one in America dare take a different stance
America will remain a free market capitalist democracy where share owners have created a great corporate democratic process by involving themselves in corporate affairs and therefore any wealth creation or recession is more equally shared than ever before.
People will keep migrating to America in the foreseeable future no matter how many walls are built by McCain or Obama
America will keep growing at a rate of 4% on average in the foreseeable future
But then every empire has its day of reckoning and America will fall as well as others did before it but that would happen not because china was too strong or Russia stopped cooperating with America but because Empires at one stage or another become too big for there own good and give way to others who must go through the same cycle as others before them.
