Electing President

I was not a big fan of McCain, but neither Obama. His resume seemed to be a bit too thin without much substance. Now finding some articles about his inflating resume after more than 1 year after the elecion, I wonder if the primary for Democrat was after all hate toward Hillary rather than Obama himself.

As many people know, Hillary was not the most likable person on the earth. I don't know about her personally at all. But, we sometimes can tell that the person is really trustworthy even from the frist impression.

Hillary was actually my kind of hero when I was in college. She inspired me and other young women to be strong and independent. There is nothing wrong with being a bitch.

But of course, after more than a decade of experiencing a real life, I realize that I was brain-washed by her campaign. Still though, she inspired me when she was fighting the losing primary until the end. The way she fight remained me of something I was inspired as a college student.

As to Obama, he is likable and seems to be an easy-going. For someone easy going but very ambitious, the job of the presidency seems to be a bit stretch if the president job is really high stressed and high pressured as reported in general. At least, people surrounding the president are definitely highly-pressured and highly-demanded.

In either ways, without knowing that his resume was inflated, his resume was already not enough at all for such the top job. It is like someone who barely have management experiences in corporate life applying for a CEO job. The presidency seems to be a lottery.

With more information available, I wish that we could have more sophisticated process of electing a president. By the time of presidential election, we have two multiple choices. I personally feel that it is the better of two evil choices.
