Understanding the Market

McCain is widely considered to be a responsible authority on military and foreign issues. But as of late, many of his economic statements have been latent with a sort of anti-capitalist sentiment. This sentiment, whether it be more populist pandering or just plain economic ignorance, places some of McCain’s economic policies to the left of […]

The Future of Ron Paul

Yesterday, Ron Paul said that he had a major announcement to make later that night. And indeed it was a major one, as he announced that he was ending his presidential campaign last night. Just today however, Ron Paul posted a thank you to all his supporters on his website. And this thank you makes […]

Pro-Growth vs. Protectionism?

On CNBC yesterday, the theme seemed to be Obama vs. McCain. The McCain supporters focused on McCain’s pro-growth tax cuts and attacked what they called protectionism from Obama; while the Obama supporters attempted to show Obama’s policies moving towards the middle while attempting to portray McCain’s policies as impossible.
The main points that were brought up […]

Vice Presidential Choices

Although many believe a VP should be selected with great consideration to how they may behave in the fall election, vice presidents hardly ever swing key states or have a huge impact in the general election. What is more important is how effectively they can help to manage the administration to keep the American people […]

At Last!

Oftentimes here at Election Stocks, we’ve brought you a view very supportive on free trade economics. We’ve used this view to support our idea that economics experts like Barack Obama understand the paradox in putting in tariffs to protect the lower classes. At last, I have found an article by a bonafide economist that supports […]

A Shift to Moderation

When in the primaries, delegates always seem more radical than they actually are in order to appeal to the party base and win the nomination. As Obama shifts towards his fall strategies for combatting Senator John McCain, we notice that his stances on certain issues are beginning to mellow out to appeal to the more […]

Looks like McCain Does Understand Politics

Not too long ago, McCain was saying that he didn’t really understand politics. But now as the Democrats are having a slander war, McCain has used this time to play catch up, and it seems like he gets it now.
On Tuesday, McCain released a new economic plan. Much of it focuses on tax cuts that, […]

Have You Heard?

You probably have heard about Obama’s “elitist” comments on small towns, but chances are that you haven’t seen the entire thing. “They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” Does this look familiar? […]

Poll Leaders (and Ron Paul) on Free Trade

Today Yahoo! News had an article about the decreasing trade deficit. While you might think that this is a good thing, many people are still critical about Bush’s policies. Naturally we decided to do some research about the 2008 candidates positions and ideas on free trade. As usual we’ll take a look at the poll […]

2008 Election Populism

We have just read through the New York Times article that I posted in my Link Sandwich earlier entitled “New Populism Is Spurring Democrats on the Economy.
According to Wikipedia, Populism is “a political doctrine or philosophy that purports to defend the interests of the common people against an entrenched, self-serving or corrupt elite.”
Therefore, in an […]
