What is Going on in Politics?

Warning: Politics ahead.
Okay, this is really odd. Lately, the two primary American candidates have begun a little debate over who thinks the most like an American. Yes, that's right. Now, in my opinion, the average American thinks in the following manner. "America is the greatest nation on earth and no other nation matters. Georgia is only a state so we need to nuke the Russian Commies for invading!" (No offense to any who think like this.)
Here's the deal. John McCain, who has been trying to come across as full-blooded American, was not born in the United States. (He was born in Panama.) Barack Obama, considered a muslim by the thick-skulled American public, was born in Hawaii. Senator Obama has the lead so far. However, as both Hillary Clinton and John McCain had reported, Obama spent part of his childhood in Indonesia, so he couldn't possibly think like an American. This ignores McCain's time in a Vietnam prison camp, which evidence has shown, could cause PTSD. I'm just an eighteen year old from Minnesota, but I believe that time growing up in Indonesia is less damaging than time in a prison camp in Vietnam. That makes the score Obama: 2, McCain: 0.
We now turn our attention to Senator Hillary Clinton. This really is a very moot point seeing as she is out of the running, but it is still humorous. Remember her ad about the phone call at three A.M.? Well, she claimed that she was the better person to be answering the call at three in the morning. Yet, in several debates against Senator Obama, Clinton complained that she always had the first question. This from the candidate who claimed that she would be ready to be president on the first day and that she was the best candidate for an unexpected emergency? American politics are screwed up of late.
