In a crisis of this magnitude, this close to the transfer of power from one president to another, the two Presidential candidates should work with the current President TO SOLVE THE CRISIS!
Either the McCain or Obama Presidency will be more impacted by this rescue plan than the Bush Presidency.
Thus, McCain & Obama should be there, in person. to work hard to reach consensus and emerge united with a solution to show the country, and the world, Republicans and Democrats agree on the way forward.
It’s stunning, and expected, that Obama does not want to drop everything else and work this issue, in our nation’s capital. Most of his time in office has been spent campaigning for higher office instead of governing (fact - look it up). In other words…
Obama places a higher priority on winning elections than producing results.
If Obama’s kids had a crisis, would he multi-task, keep campaigning and call his daughters to let them know they can call him back if needed? If a bus of kids had a terrible accident in front of him, would he back away and promise to keep in touch with the paramedics?
Of course, Presidents should be able to multi-task - both McCain and Obama can do that. If the worst crisis since the Depression occurs, they should be able to delegate everything else and focus themselves, and the nation, on solving the crisis - McCain’s solid.
They can debate foreign policy in a couple weeks, the nation needs a solution to the credit crisis now.
Obama is telling us a lot about what kind of leader he is and will be.
I’m not impressed.
