[QUOTE="Michael Cacioppo, post: 820783, member: 57235"] Lask1, I do not know about Obama being a true scholar, educated yes, scholar I don't know. For all his years teaching how come no one who has studied under him have come forward, Pro or Con? Where's the feedback. When it comes to debating I am sure Obama shines well above McCain. We are not electing someone solely on being charismatic or a good speaker. A man's background, outspoken views and associations have a lot to say about them. Its called character. I think that McCain wins on this one. Obama has been very outspoken in the past as being pro Affirmative Action. I'm not. It seems to me to be reverse discrimination. Am I in favor of helping people get ahead that are disadvantaged, yes. I am in favor of doing this by discriminating against others, no. The US has tried to "raise the minorities" status through special programs and give aways. It has not helped. In fact it has hurt the minorities tremendously. Hand out are not the way to help. Its like the old proverb, "give someone a fish and he is fed for one day. Teach them how to fish and they are fed every day." Education is the way to achieve this., but they MUST fish for themselves after that. Obama's method is the handout method which we have seen doesn't work. [/QUOTE]
