Obama

Obama has maintained fundamental foreign exposure from the ground up, going back a long way into his youth, unlike Republican John McCain and fellow Democrat Hillary Clinton.

He carries on his person, among other things, a small metal figure of Hanuman, having become familiar with the Ramayana during his days in Indonesia.

Obama said the US "did not arrive at the doorstep of our current economic crisis by some accident of history" nor was it "an inevitable part of the business cycle that was beyond our power to avoid,". "It was the logical conclusion of a tired and misguided philosophy that has dominated Washington for far too long.". "....For eight long years, Bush sacrificed investments in health care, and education, and energy, and infrastructure on the altar of tax breaks for big corporations and wealthy CEOs - trillions of dollars in giveaways that proved neither compassionate nor conservative" "For all his talk of independence, the centrepiece of McCain's economic plan amounts to a full-throated endorsement of George Bush's policies".

Obama has a fundamentally different vision of where to take the country from his Republican rival. McCain directly caused many of the present problems of the US by kowtowing to bent financiers and as President he would make things far worse.

IMO: Obama has a good grasp of economics, the Ramayana is a great book and I hope he receives the blessings of Lord Hanuman. (Someone said :"My faith in the Lord Hanuman has become even greater when I found that the likely US President carries Hanuman's figure everywhere")
