by means of the club, the whip, the power of fear.

Ed Abbey said this and I believe that this shows the key difference between our two candidates. Do we want a leader to tries to lead by example or a ruler who uses the whip and the power of fear? A moving speech on the audacity of hope and the power of change and inspiration or another 4 years of "3AM phone call" ads? Hasnt bush already ruled us through fear?

Do we want to be led out of a very dark time of wars, pending economic disaster, and global climate change or do we want to be ruled by more fear of more wars, further economic calamity, and greater global disaster?
