Is the recent McCain ad racist?

The ad that has Paris Hilton and Britney Spears is a subtle way for the Republicans to display their racist views. The GOP shows two blond white women and Barack Obama in pictures. Are the Republicans trying to get the racists out from under their rocks? Then the Republicans call Obama "arrogant." Are the Republicans trying to say that he doesn't know his place? Are they trying to say that he has no right to compete against the white man, John McCain?

John McCain is really not the best candidate. McCain brags about his poor academic performance at the Academy. He says he doesn't understand economics. What qualifications does McCain have to be President? McCain has a lot of money. Does that qualify him to be President? He wears $520 Ferragamo shoes. Does that qualify him to be President? Haven't we had enough of dumb, rich people in the White House?

John McCain appears to be a bitter, mean, and forgetful, old man. The only things he offers this country are the same old worn out policies of the Bush administration. Here we are in the 21st century and the Republicans offer us a candidate stuck in the 1950's. In order to prepare for the challenges of the future, we need a smart, healthy President who is able to think and take on those challenges. Barack Obama is that candidate.
