The whole theory of mutually assured destruction promises us that the invisible hand of international relations will never guide other places to nuke the U.S. That is because we have so many bombs we could destroy every human being on the planet, so no one would dare. So, WE are allowed to nuke places to keep order, and "leave every option on the table" like Mr. Barack says, but it is wrong for other places to consider having that kind of power.

Visit the Titan Missile Museum in southern AZ some time. It tells the story of heroic nuclear men and women who led our nation through a dark time by threatening to obliterate humanity. The fact that we are still here is proof that threats to obliterate humanity will probably never be acted upon. At least, they will never come back to haunt us.

So, the best option is to, like I said before, "keep every option on the table." This means we should keep our heroic men and women in uniform living in little metal booths, drawing salaries and health care while they keep their finger close to the trigger, ready to blow up the world if anyone points their missile at us.

With Obama as President, also, we will have a better diplomatic image, so people will be LESS likely to want to nuke us. That is another reason to vote for him, and not Grandpa McCain.
