Presidential Elections 2012: Moore Vs. Winfrey

Well the primary season is nearly ended, I don't care much about the republican race, although I must confess that republicans usually have a more prominent international role than democrats, however their effect on the world is a negative one. The way I see it if McCain is elected present, he will declare war against my country, he will replace this government with one worse than this, and thousands will die in the process. Look at the Bush dynasty, they have been one of the most outstanding warmongers of 20th century, if they could they would declare a world wide war along with civil war and intergalactic wars!!!



Enough about the republicans. For the democrats, well the race is almost over, Barak Obama is gearing up for a national campaign, while Hillary is waiting for the right moment to gracefully bow out (personally I think that time has passed). However for american people I would have said that Hillary had some solid plans at least for my part of expertise which is health care, as much as I didn't like her foreign policy, I hated Obama's campaigning strategy, which I can simply describe as populistic; it may be quite a silly comparison but he reminds me of our president, a populist who can rally masses, but can actually deliver nothing. But it is not for me to say as I am not an American!!!



Now let's look ahead to 2012 presidential elections, I want to purpose two candidates whose run off will be quite fun to watch: Oprah Winfrey Vs. Michael Moore. I think Oprah will participate as a democrate, but how the hell should I know what is Michael Moore's political party (may be Mormon!!!). But one thing I am sure of is that, Oprah will be representing the Corporation of America! and Michael will be representing the Actual People of America! (New Political Entities coming to polling stations near you!!!). Oprah will think that she is running for presidency, for the benefit of the world, people, human rights, Hollywood actors and yes Global Warming! but she is naive, she will save two puppies out of ten million, ten girls out of hundred thousand and so on. She will boast about green life while her talk show is responsible for a major part of global warming (consider the TV hours per day spent watching Oprah and then multiply that by the electricity TVs consume per hour and then multiply that by the amount of Fossil Fuel burnt to produce that electricity and then calculate the proportion of global warming the final sum is contributing to!!!)



But she will have a very effective and powerful weapon, The Media. The greedy corporation run thing! that has access to every soul on the planet (ok fine almost everyone) and by media claim, Oprah is the Philantropist of all time (behind corporation guys like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet) and then there is the matter of money, Oprah will have billions of campaining funds, while Michael will have support of the blue collars who themselves need financial support!!!



However Michael, is a genuine article! He is not blind nor a fool, he will run for descent way of life either in politics, economy or health care; he sees the big picture, but talks in a way that he pisses off enough people. But at least he is honest, which is quite an terrible quality for a president to have. He is my type of hero, ordinary person, ordinary abilities yet with enough ambition and care. He is though but he will be knocked out in the first round of election campaining. He'll lose, no doubt about it.



That election will have many firsts, among them the first african american woman (Oprah) running for presidency (among with her vice president nominee aka friend: Gale!) and the first Triple X large person (Michael) running for the presidency of US of A. Actually Michael's people need to publish two posters for him each containing one half of him!!!



Returning to 2008 presidential contest: Vote for Ralph Nader
