So i've decided that as a former political science major it would be a good idea for me to, say, pay attention to the election. I know.... astounding.

So in my endeavor to do this (and i insert here that I do not lean towards any candidate just yet) I watched part of a Fox debate on Youtube and came across the following statement made by John McCain (I'm not sure this was aired on tv as it was during the Ron Paul segment which was cut by fox news. Nice) anyway Ron Paul was talking about allowing Arab nations to broker peace by themselves. John McCain interrupts only to state the following

"I'm not interested in trading with Al-Qaeda. All they want to trade is Burkhas. I don't want to travel with them they like one-way tickets"

around 8 minutes

Really? Out loud --not to mention on the air? That statement alone lost the possibility of my vote. Not the person I would want representing my country thank you.
