A distinction without a meaningful difference.
Of course Barack Obama is a different kind of president than Mitt Romney would be, but the differences are few and far between, and rarely occur on the most pressing of issues. To the extent that you doubt this claim, take a look at this stunning chart created by the campaign of Rocky Anderson who, despite the fact that his campaign is almost totally being ignored by the media, is also running for President of the United States.
And further ask yourself how it can possibly be that Anderson’s campaign and other parties that have much to add to the national conversation, will be excluded from any presidential “debates.”
