Both candidates for the position of President of the United States show a promising future. Although they both have similar projects and goals for their homeland, they have their differences in terms of technique and manner. As they grew up in a completely different manner, they may see the world in two different ways.
Born on August 29, 1936, John McCain III had witnessed and had been a part of the Cold War after graduating from the United States National Academy in 1958 as a Naval Aviator. After which, he was married on July 3, 1965. Still being involved in the military, McCain was shot down on a bombing mission, and was held war prisoner from 1967-1973.
McCain is an American citizen as a Southern Baptist. He believes that the way to run America is in a Republican way of politics, similar to the way U.S. President, George W. Bush runs the country. Although he has a strong military background, McCain does not believe in war.
Regarding issues of the U.S., McCain focuses on answering the problems of Economy, Health Care, and most especially, Security. McCain wants to implement a “pro-growth, pro-jobs” strategy to improve America’s economy. In terms of health care, he primarily focuses on the costs of treatment to be under control. Lastly, McCain believes that defending American citizens and their resources is the number one priority of a president.
On the other hand, Barack Obama II is almost completely different from John McCain. Born on August 4, 1961, Obama had also witnessed moving events of his life. Being born in Hawaii with a Kenyan bloodline, his parents divorced after two years, his mother marrying an Indonesian, changing his name to Barry Soetoro for awhile, growing up in his stepfather’s homeland, then finally growing up in the United States Obama had seen a wide variety of cultures.
Obama is an American Christian. His manner of running the country is the Democratic way. Obama is extremely political, graduating from Harvard Law School and being in the Illinois Senate shortly after for 8 years, being state legislator afterwards, then lastly being a part of the U.S. senate.
Obama also focuses on the same issues McCain focuses on, but in different ways. In terms of Economy, Obama wants to implement a 21st century economic agenda that should make America compete in the global economy in a better way. He also wants to invest in infrastructure, energy dependence, research and development, and education. When it comes to health care, Obama primarily focuses on citizens with disabilities, giving them further attention and care in society. Lastly, Obama focuses on anti-terrorism in terms of homeland security by generally improving disaster preparedness.
