The Case for Barack Obama

I recently read The Case for Barack Obama, an article in News Week by Fareed Zakaria about how this campaign the debates aren't full of negativity, but each side respectively discussing their ideas.  Zakaria writes about how McCain is a brave war veteran, has broken with his party on many issues, yet he is not the the right man for president.  He's out of tune with the economic crisis.  He wants to continue fighting in Iraq but not with a modern day strategy.  His campaign hasn't been steady like Bararck Obama.  Obama has a broader economic agenda including health care reform and a major push of alternate sources of energy.  Zakaria says neither candidates have experience needed for this presidency.  Most people believe Obama has run a superb operation while McCain has been chaotic and ineffective.
