Presidential Debate '08 - #2

How scary and depressing is it that neither candidate realizes that Dmitri Medvedev is the president of Russia. Putin is now the Prime Minister not the president. They essentially swapped positions in May, but no big deal, I mean Russia isn't really that big anyway... oh wait, yeah it is the largest country IN THE WORLD. That's ok though, I'm sure after one of these guys gets elected Russia will still refer to George Bush as President....
It is also very annoying how these guys side step questions and make one sentence answers into multiple paragraphs. Just once I'd like to see a politician answer a simple question with a simple answer. I know there are no simple questions when it comes to a debate like this, but just one time. You know what, whoever is able to give the shortest answer should be president. Well perhaps that isn't the best method for picking a new commander and chief, but allowing these guys to talk for an hour and a half and show how little they really know can't exactly over impress the rest of the world either. There is an hour and a half you'll never get back.
