Silent Debate

I hate the way they move, the way they freeze after they say something and dramatically move their hands as if there words are small diamonds falling on a nation of eager listeners.

Romney looks angry. He should be. His suit makes he look like a rectangle.
Obama looks relaxed. too relaxed. hes trying to be the president of the united states.

I wonder what makes that guys heard race.
His face stays open. eyebrows up. Do they choreograph that stuff too?

Romneys face looks like white privilege. His hands are in fists like hes angrily pounding the table making demands.

Romney looks at Obama

Obama looks at the audience.

Obama keeps making this invisible orb circle with his hands. Im sure hes talking about the middle class.

I feel like I want to do a voice over like Wizzard People Dear Readers.

(if you didnt catch that reference click here... if you did click here)

It feels way to grand. I keep thinking about what Marshall Mcluhan suggested and was immediatly laughed at.

What if what we watched was Obama and Romney sitting down over a beer just taking passionately about what they believe America needs.  It will never happen though. Too much of a risk.

Romney is focusing all this attention on Obama... staring him down. Obama looks so passive in comparison.

It all feels really rehearsed.

They look like puppets. I mean I guess they are.
