McCain's Plans for Improving Airport Security.

About a week ago, I said that my next two blogs would explore both parties views on improving airport security. Last week I discussed Obama's plan, now it is McCain turn. For John McCain, the plan is very precise. "We need to know who and what is entering our country and where they are destined. This task must be accomplished by utilizing the appropriate mix of dedicated manpower, state-of-the-art technology, reliable information analysis, and sturdy physical barriers." (John McCain) I specifically quoted this statement from this website because this is the only thing I have found through indepth research where McCain addresses his plans for airport security. Yes, McCain has other plans for improving the Department of Homeland Security, but I feel that improving airport security is one of the most important sub-divisions of Homeland Security. After all, it was due to the lack of airport security that the terrorist attacks of 9-11 occured in the first place. So, if McCain is not focusing much attention on the improvement of airport security, then what many people are probably asking is, what is he focusing on to keep our country safe. That is the ultimate question. As I have mentioned before, the thought of a catastrophic event such as 9-11 recurring is one of my greatest fears. Another fear I have is flying, so when I am trying to decide which candidate to vote for in the upcoming election, I am going to vote for the candidate that is going to help take away my fears. On this issue, Obama is the clear winner. His plan is more detailed and he has put forth alot of attention toward improving the security of our airports and the safety of flying.
