		<description>Blah, blah, blah ... Arrogance?  McCain has a rich wife, and they own multiple residences &amp; investment properties.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But, honestly, what matters is who has &quot;experience&quot; to be President.  Well, it&#039;s neither!  You don&#039;t have experience unless you are the incumbent President.  We have to decide based on the &quot;facts&quot; of the candidates, not experience.!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Honestly, if you want political experience you&#039;d choose McCain.  However, that experience doesn&#039;t mean Presidential success, so how do you choose.  I&#039;m trying to decide, so tell me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you want an outsider, then how can you not choose Obama?  But, does outsider mean the person will be a &quot;good&quot; President.  Who knows?  Again, tell me how you would decide?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If military service is important, then tell me how I evaluate whether one&#039;s service is a predictor of Presidential success?  I doubt there is a cause &amp; effect correlation!  I&#039;m open to hear arguments though ...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And, similarly, how does someone who can lead a &quot;community&quot; levely following be a good President.  I don&#039;t know that that is a predictor of a good President either, but I&#039;m open to hearing why it might.  Please, someone, tell me why I can be confident in &quot;that&quot; person!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That&#039;s it, I&#039;m undecided, but looking for &quot;real&quot; change ...</description>
