The Diffrences in the Candidates

The differences between the two front runners, Obama and McCain are strikingly different. McCain is more spontaneous and accessible, and Obama is more disciplined and remote. However they have one trait in common, they both want the Presidency very badly.

Each candidate has a style of their own and they carry themselves very differently. McCain is 5-foot-9 and 71 years old. he has a ramrod posture, and likes to move quickly while clinching his fists. This combination makes McCain often come across as stiff and unapproachable. On-the-other-hand Obama is 6-foot-2 and 46 years old. When he gives a speech he holds his head up high and his arms swing freely by his side, instead of hidden in his pockets.

The two have extremely different personalities and campaign approaches. Both candidates also understand that mannerisms on the trail can provide insight into how one will act in office.
