Why should anyone vote an adolescence into presidency?

The debate between Obama and McCain seemed pointless. It was very boring and it seemed that both men had acted as children. Both tried pointing out each others faults, but both did lie on a few occasions. Most people from the two articles believed that Senator Obama won that debate, but I some-what agree with this statement, since Obama was very pushy and rude throughout the entire debate, it made him seem like he had the upper hand on McCain as he kept interrupting Jim and John. The forty-minute debate on economic was bothersome as Obama and McCain repeatedly kept going back and fourth, trying to correct each other and sabotage each other by relaying incorrect information about the other. McCain did not interrupt as much as Obama had, and he mostly stuck to his point. Obama kept repeating him self with the "What we really need to ask ourselves is... The main point is..." and there was no main point, just corrections to McCain. McCain kept bringing up himself as someone who has been around and knows what America and its people need while he says that Obama lacks experience. Both parties were unclear about where they stood and lacked the communication skills needed for this debate, maybe we should let five year-olds run for president.
