  Barack Obama and John McCain: The two faces of the elite
 
 
Title: Barack Obama and John McCain: The two faces of the elite
Author: John Sargis
Appeared in: International journal of inclusive democracy
Paging: Volume 4 (2008) nr. 3 pages 6
Year: 2008
Contents: As the 2008 Presidential campaign opens the season of promises for change, the two presumptuous presidential nominees Barack Obama and John McCain say they will change politics as usual in Washington. Barack’s slogan “change you can believe in” enlists voters to believe in their ability to bring about change in Washington by electing him. And McCain’s jingle “the right change” recruits voters to trust in his other slogan the “straight talking” man and elect him. Barack is a reformer trying to patch up the broken American Dream, and McCain is a war monger whose right change will bring more of the same and worse. Both campaigns will target disaffected women, white working class, Latinos, and youth. Both men are dangerous, because each will carry on supporting the bogus war on terror at home and abroad, and because either one is getting elected he will guarantee that the transnational economic and political elite will have their “man” in the White House.
