First of all, Barak Obama is NOT a Muslim, people!!! Hello!!! How much was in he in the news for what his CHRISTIAN pastor said??? I mean, I don't care if you don't like the guy, you are entitled to your opinions, but can we at least not resort to name calling?

Secondly, I'm voting for Obama. I grew up in Arizona, I saw what McCain did for my state-which was nothing, except lie through his teeth. I don't want that in a president. I don't like a man who will hide his opinions just to look better-like McCain has done when he so quickly became moderate right before announcing his first bid for the presidency 4 yrs ago. And lastly, McCain is well known for his temper, and verbally abuses his wife in public when he's "had a bad day" (this is something HE himself said in response to a book about his life-do not tell me I'm wrong, I watched him answer the question). See, I figure, as President, he's gonna have a lot of bad days. And verbal abuse often leads to more. I would prefer to not have a man prone to abuse in the white house.

Obama, on the other hand, is a huge family man, has only been in the senate for 7 years, but has done quite a bit for his own state. He seems to be incredibly moral and never once backed into the mud slinging politics are so famous for in the race for the democratic party nomination. I respect him immensely, which is a lot more than I can say for McCain. I don't care that McCain was in the military and a POW. Until McCain started putting his career ahead of his constituents, I had great respect for the man for that very reason. I do not, however, think that makes him more capable of running the country. Period. Why should we punish Obama for not being old enough to have served in Vietnam?

Oh.. and I think the best choice for his VP would be Condoliza (sp?) Rice. Our sexist, racist country would not dream of assasinating him if the follower was not only African-American, but a woman! (It's a joke!!) And John, I don't think the dude was calling for an assasination. Just saying that it could be likely, due to his race/supposed religion and the controversy over it.
