In October 7, 2008, there was a Presidential Debate, let's see how both of the candidates use rhetoric.
Senator Obama
Present- "I think everybody knows now we are in the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression."
Past- "And I believe this is a final verdict on the failed economic policies of the last eight years, strongly promoted by President Bush and supported by Senator McCain"
Future- "The Treasury should demand that money back and those executives should be fired."
Senator Mc Cain
Present- "Americans are angry, they're upset, and they're a little fearful. It's our job to fix the problem."
Future- "Now, I have a plan to fix this problem and it has got to do with energy independence."
"I would order the secretary of the treasury to immediately buy up the bad home loan mortgages in America and renegotiate at the new value of those homes -- at the diminished value of those homes and let people be able to make those -- be able to make those payments and stay in their homes. "
Past-"Do you know that we've laid a $10 trillion debt on these young Americans who are here with us tonight, $500 billion of it we owe to China?"
