John McCain as Commander -In-Chief

Will John McCain have any difficulty, due to his age, answering the red phone at three o’clock in the morning? It has been proven medically and scientifically that all our faculties for hearing, smelling, tasting, feeling and seeing diminish over a period of time and a person’s faculties in his seventies are not as sharp as a person in his forties or fifties. I can’t believe the American people would elect a mediocre, marginal person like John McCain who is nothing but a clone of George Bush and Dick Cheney thus getting more of the same incompetency and gross ineptness.
John McCain was one of the principle persons responsible for securing the forty billion dollar Air Force refueling- tanker contract for the DOD (Air Force) with Northrop Grumman and Airbus and the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company (parent company of Airbus). This contract will cost thousands of Boeing corporation workers in Kansas and other states their respective jobs. Hillary Clinton also sits on the Armed Services Committee. John McCain and Hillary Clinton were too busy with their presidential campaigns to pay any attention to this lucrative defense contract that will impact hundreds of thousands of workers in the United States. Furthermore, John McCain and Hillary Clinton’s actions in the tankard contract are evidence of their lack of attention, thoroughness, sensitivity to the problems of the people of the United States they maintain they are desirous of serving.
Are John McCain and Hillary Clinton the types of individuals you would want as commander-in-chief who would franchise out our good paying jobs in the aircraft industry and port security to foreign corporations and foreign workers? This deal with the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company will cost the United States of America the loss of 22 million dollars in needed tax revenues.
Why would the voters in Ohio be so gullible and naïve to believe that Hillary Clinton would become a fair trade president rather than a free trade president?
Ohio lost those 200,000 jobs due to another Clinton by the name of Bill Clinton because of NAFTA. John McCain is also a free trader. John McCain or Hillary Clinton in the White House means that America would lose what little manufacturing jobs we have left to the EU, China, the Pacific Rim Nations, NAFTA and CAFTA. This is John McCain and Hillary Clinton’s brand of affirmative action in that they favor foreign companies/manufacturers over American companies and workers.
Our trade laws need to be changed because of the preferential treatment given to foreign corporations relative to tariffs and taxes. These unfair trade laws were created under Bill Clinton and a Republican dominated Congress. Nancy Pelosi needs to expeditiously conduct investigatory hearings to insure that this will never happen again in order to insure that American companies and American workers will have their interests and rights protected.
