The Economist Endorses Barack Obama!


"It's time"

Happy Halloween everyone :-)

I just got the new issue of The Economist in the mail, and I couldn't be happier. The Economist, which is one of the most sensible magazines, endorses Barack Obama.

This is significant, because The Economist (while unabashedly pro-free trade) is a naturally skeptical (thus thoughtful) magazine, so it argues both sides of the equation. It freely expresses its doubts for both candidates and points out a better choice. It's also significant because it means the decision makes sense from the econimical, political, and security standpoint, not just from the ideological standpoint.

"America should take a chance and make Barack Obama the next leader of the free world... He has earned it."

Amen.
