Three questions for the "undecided" I meet.

Yesterday i met a guy who thought both candidates were 'flawed'. Didn't think it made a difference.

So I pulled out my three questions;

1) In the last 30 years what American politician do you think has had a more positive impact than President Obama. (If he picks Clinton then you can simply ask who is Clinton endorsing.)

Answer: None

2) In the last 10 years what world leader do you think has had a more positive impact than President Obama?

Answer: None

3) If you took away from the Republican side the 30% of the anti Obama numbers are pure racists do you agree that without that number they couldn't carry a single state, they wouldn't even carry Utah.

Answer: Surprisingly every undecided I have talked to readily agrees.

So you think he is the most positive American politician in the last 30 years and the best world leader of the last decade and he can only be defeated by a coalition that is heavily dependent on racists, and you think that you might want to replace him with Mitt Romney why?


Of course at this point they give up (whether you actually win them to our side is another question) but I like to leave them with this thought. "They called Lincoln an Ape and a Nigger-Lover and other names. He only won re election with 54% of the vote, and that is without the South. If Lincoln were running today, he wouldn't be nominated by the Republican Party and if they had included the southern states back then he would have been thoroughly defeated in the popular vote, if you include the South. I think most people would agree looking back that the people of the time rather under appreciated Lincoln"
