A president’s pension currently is $191,300 per year, for life.
Assuming the next president lives to age 80:

1) Sen. McCain would receive ZERO pension, as he would reach 80 at the end of two terms as president.

2) Sen. Obama would be retired for 26 years after two terms, so would receive $4,973,800 in pension.

Therefore, it would certainly make economic sense to elect McCain in November.
Now, how’s that for non-partisan thinking???
