Compare the Candidates on the Issues

On the Presidential election campaign, both candidates John McCain and Barack Obama debate on the issues like abortion, Iraqi war, education, energy, health care... I'd like to talk about the current war issue in Iraq and this is a serious issue. Obama always opposes the current war in Iraq and believes that war is just a terrible mistake. I like his idea that he said "would take troops out of Iraq within one and half years if he is elected to be the president". In addition, he would also help training the Iraqi soldiers and solving problems in Iraq like economic issue et cetera.

Candidate McCain's idea on this issue is totally opposite with Obama's idea. I dislike/disagree with his idea since he always supports the Iraqi war and he tries to recruit soldiers and sent them over that country. And he has an unclear time to withdraw American soldiers from Iraq. He estimates the time to remove the American soldiers in 2013, which is five years later from now. As you know, there will be more innocent Iraqi people and soldiers die or maybe cause even more conflicts between both countries within that five years. I am in favor of Obama's idea on this issue, which is take troops out of Iraq immediately, and i believe that would be a better solution to solve the conflict between these two countries and it would be the first step to reduce the enmity of Iraqi people towards American.

Another issue that really attracts me is the Energy. I'm kind of moderate with both candidates' perspectives on this issue. McCain's idea is to expand nuclear power by creating 45-100 nuclear power plants in the U.S. and asks for government's support for the reason of a clean resource. On this issue Obama thinks explore more nuclear energy isn't a great option and has to take it into consideration with nuclear power's storage and people's safety. [Nuclear power is a clean resource but it is nonrenewable and dangerous. McCain says to build up minimum 45 nuclear power plants, which will cost a large amount of money and need a big subsidy from the government while we are in the economic crisis situation.]
