Please, not another dim, out-of-touch Republican president

John McCain may be a charming guy in person. And he’s has a warrior bio that makes conservative super-patriots weep. But he also admits to being computer illiterate (see the YouTube below), in an era when knowing how to navigate Google should be a minimum standard for competence. Remember also that McCain graduated in the bottom 1% of his class in Annapolis. And his never-ending gaffes on the campaign trail about international events would have disqualified him months ago in the Democratic party.

Don’t we deserve a presidential election with two qualified candidates? When one candidate was editor of the Harvard Law Review and the other has to have his wife open his email, you would think it would be a no-brainer who would win. But voters here are coddled by the media into thinking that “character” counts more than “competence.”

Until Iraq. Until Katrina. Until the current economic meltdown.

Viva Zapata is his favorite movie? If this man is elected, welcome to war with Iran.
