The candidates are more focuses on winning the race, than on actually addressing the grim reality by the citizens. This political cartoon proposes that McCain said “Change” 10 times today, and Obama said “Change” 20 times today. This depicts that the presidential candidates are competing over the littlest things, when they could actually be making a difference. The candidates should also be coming through with their promises instead of talking large and doing so little. This political cartoon also displays and unemployed, poor man holding a cup, pleading for “Change”. This demonstrates that the public is not getting any benefit from the candidate’s speeches. The candidates have their heads in the clouds, and their only goal is to say something better than the other. In conclusion, the presidential candidates have yet to “Change” the US. They have only spoken about it, describing what they will do, instead of what they are doing.
