If the primaries were held today, I would have to take a republican ballot and cast it for Senator John McCain of Arizona. Like many of my fellow New Hampshirites I value his outsider mentality and ability to work with the democratic party. On social issues I disagree with his stance on abortion, gay rights and immigration. But however on foreign policy I have come to find myself closely aligned with his viewpoints on the war in Iraq and the so-called "war on terror".
His belief that our nation's top priority should be a strong defense is something that I honor in selecting a candidate. His beliefs in holding business accountable yet keeping a competative environment for small businesses to grow and thrive is also a strong point for me in comparison to the other candidates in the field. Out of the current field of candidates; both democratic and republican, he is the man I would most trust to protect my family, friends and myself from attack but yet still maintain positive diplomatic relations. And also, in my view; being a veteran should be a requirement for the office of President and John McCain fills that requirement to the FULLEST.
So far no other GOP candidate has shown me that they would be better for America and bringing people together as much as the Senator from Arizona. So I am officially endorsing John McCain for president for the upcoming 2008 presidential primary and I urge my many friends and family from my home in New Hampshire to join me once again and vote for him.
The best candidate to take on someone like Hillary Clinton....
