Obama raps McCain for ignorance of hi on houses
By MATT APUZZO
Associated Press Writer

This article talked about comments that McCain had made in a resent interview with Politico regarding the houses he owned and the money him and his wife Cindy McCain have. McCain’s campaign made some comments to Politico about the houses that him and his wife have, they said it was four houses in three different states. Later Newsweek made an estimate that they actually owned seven house. These comments upset the Obama campaign, which Obama set out to do sixteen campaigns across the country were he talked about all the McCain comments about how much a person in the U.S. has to make 5 million dollars a year to be consider rich. McCain later fire back saying that Osama shouldn’t make comments when he recently returned from a private beach in Hawaii and he has a million dollar mansion. But McCain got this wrong because Hawaii has no private beaches and the is were Obama was born and lived most of his life.

The reason why I chose this article is because my dad and I are planning on voting this year and I want to know more about the nominees. This article relates to how they might help the economy and what they think about it. I think that the candidates should think more about how they will help the economy one they get the presidency. Instead on focusing on how much money they make and how many houses they have they should focus and what they will for the country after one of them becomes the president. My only concern is for who ever gets the presidency is that they will do something good for the people, schools, the kids, health benefits, and social security. I just have faith that they will do good and help.
