McCain Says "Let's Fight For Justice & Opportunity For All!"

In an impassioned stump speech, McCain said something that is true. Americans do need to "fight for justice & opportunity for all". It sounds great coming from his mouth but it does not apply to him. He is contradicting himself when he says "Obama wants to punish the wealthy for being successful." McCain says that Obama wants to "take from one group of Americans & give to another group of Americans." Well, that sounds like a divided America to me. It doesn't sound like McCain is fighting for "opportunity for all."

Do small business owners create an "opportunity for all?" In this day & age,a lot of these businesses still don't want to hire black folks. There has been too many jobs where I was the only black person working there & the environment was usually uncomfortable because of that. These "opportunities" that John McCain wants to help small business owners create will still exclude a lot of people.A lot of small businesses have stringent hiring practices in place. They are doing credit checks, drug test, background checks,& you must have a clean driving record. A lot of people have bad credit,especially those who are poor. It's hard to improve yourself when you have to go through a bunch of shit just to get a job.

Here in America, we are telling our citizens that they must be perfect. If they make any mistakes,they deserve to never be able to recover from it. That's the path that too many employers have taken. And it's keeping people in a state of impoverishment.So, McCain is dead wrong when he says that helping small businesses helps all Americans. It helps those Americans who have had the good fortune to have retained good credit,etc... What about those people who need a job to pay off their debts so that they can improve their standing in society? John McCain won't help them. We,the poor,are not successful like these "other Americans." We deserve to be shunned by the rich. Even though there has never been an "opportunity for all" in America. Barack Obama proposes to change that.

Which angers McCain & Palin because they are engaging in class warfare. It's clear that this election is really about the rich going against the poor. The middle-class is just stuck in the "middle." John McCain's message is aimed at "successful" Americans. Check out this in-depth article called "Postmodern John McCain" that I found on Phoenix New Times. Here's an excerpt:

"I've been a writer and editor at New Times for 15 years. For much of that time, I wrote about Arizona politics, which is to say that I wrote about John McCain. It's still odd to see the guy in the spotlight, because for quite a while, I was pretty much the only one covering him.

I never did fall for him in the way reporters fall for politicians, probably because he wasn't much to fall for back in the early 1990s. In those days, McCain was still rehabilitating the image he'd later sell to the national media. He was known then for cavorting in the Bahamas with Charlie Keating, rather than for fighting for campaign finance reform and limited government spending."
