debate 3

In debate three I noticed that Obama and McCain were playing more of a blame game than anything. none the less they were debating. i noticed though McCain kept referencing Joe The Plumber and I checked factcheck.org to find that Obama made false claims saying Obama would make him pay more taxes than Himself. i found out that he was actually wrong and with Obama's plan he is actually not going to be taxed an incredible amount.

In class we were talking about the tax increase and I found that just about everyone in our class would be exempt from that and I wondered why people wouldn't vote for Obama with something like that. but then i thought about it and realized there more things than just taxes.

I think it is funny though how McCain thinks segregation doesn't exist anymore in schools or places. He said "Well, it's the civil rights issue of the 21st century. There's no doubt that we have achieved equal access to schools in America after a long and difficult and terrible struggle"
we may have achieved equal access but when you actually go to a public school it is still segregated. Every race is with one another, but when you come to high tech though it is different. you see that there aren't any groups just a mix of people who all hang out with each other. that is the difference that we have discussed, as to where McCain saying it no longer exist. It exists but its not as big a problem as it used to be. that is the point I wanted to get across.
