McCain mavrick?

Hey all, I hope that everyone had a great Fathers Day. I promised to write about both Presidential candidates, and I intend to discuss Senator John McCain this time around.
The Republican Party has often gained a reputation for nominating politician who where Conservatives in most issues in the political arena. This trend has hit rock bottom. Senator John Sidney Mccain from Arizona will probably receive the nomination at Republican National Convention.
John Mccain was born at Coco Solo Naval Air Station on August 29, 1936. He does hold a lengthy distinguished military record that I thank for. It’s important that he did serve his country honorably, but his political career isn’t as distinguished as when he wore the uniform.
Mccain got elected to the House of Representative in 1982, and then he followed a path to holding his current seat as a Senator which started in 1987. His voting record shows the many times he decided to vote against his party, but more importantly his lack of political consistence. Mccain’s own site points out how he plans to be strict on companies who contribute large amounts of carbon emissions, and how he plans to fight the climate change battle with cap trade ideas. I won’t detail this plan as it basically flushes more companies out of our own economy by imposing unreachable measures when it comes to eco friendly products. For instance, he wants to make carbon emission the level it was in 1990 by 2020.
Senator Mccain has always followed his own best interest with bills like the Mccain Feingold Act. This bill limits the amount of contribution money candidates can receive prior to an election, and it also limits the ability for individuals to criticize politicians before you pull the lever. His site highlights him as a true anti lobbyist champion. Finally, he is known for his support of the No Child Left Behind Act. This law in principle is great as it tries to increase the level of the educational standard children get, but it’s just more federal spending on a project poorly enforced. According to a study conducted in 2003 American students ranked 18th among the 24 leading industrialized nations as written in an article by Elaine Wu.
I am not satisfied with John Mccain’s political career. His opinions have often pleased those around him, and they have never been consistent on most issues. Do you trust the distinguished naval veteran, or the politician who is known as a maverick for defying all political alliances? James.
