election

How can we possibly tell what is true and what is false with these presidential candidates?  They both say what they will do
but they cannot do it without congress.  So, I pray God will lead the voters to bring us the president that we need to run
this country.

That's a good point

So if you actually want the president to be able to do what they plan to do, you should vote Democratic, since Democrats currently have a majority in both the house and the senate and are expected to widen their majority.

You can also turn to impartial fact checking sites as to what is true and false with these presidential candidates. Is it true that one of McCain's top finance advisors is Fiona Carly, who singlehandedly ran HP computers into the ground? Why yes it is. Is it true that another of McCain's top finance advisors is Keating who was responsible for the Savings and Loan (S&L) scandals of the 80s? Why yes it is.

Did Obama graduate from Harvard Law School as magna cum laude and was the president of the Harvard Law Review? Why yes it is. Did McCain finish 894 of 899 in his college graduating class at Annapolis? Why yes he did.

Let me know if you need help in understanding these and other facts that might, just might, give you a hint as to how to vote.
