This may be a strange reason to support a person campaigning for president. However, I do not believe most of what comes out of the candidates' mouths anyway. I think they'll say what they believe is most likely to get them elected. I'm tired of the "old boys network", and I think that this country should progress from its discriminatory history.
I don't really like Hillary that much. Obama seems like a good candidate. Does he have a chance to win? Will this country elect a black president, if he's the best man for the job?

I agree, I can not stand Hilary and I tend to vote Democratic.

I would also like to see a minority president... I think it is time... however you should base your desicion on what you believe they will do in office and the best candidate..
I like Obama because he has fresh ideas and is a winner. I think he can turn this country into the right direction... his race actually has very little to do with my opinion, but as an african american... it a bonus for me because it would mean a lot for this country and the progression of minorites to look upon as a role model... there are still many people who believe that these opportunites are only for rich white males..

Not really down with HC...If an African American was the best canidate I believe that he/she would be elected...I just dont think Obama is the best can. out there....I tend to vote for who I think would do best...Not down party lines....(waste of votes) I dont really see anyone so far that has grabbed my attention, Mike Gravel...He is pretty wild, has some ideas that really never come up...But I am about 99% sure he wont get the nomination..

As a Republican, I liked Collin Powell, though not sure if he is charismatic enough, call me crazy, but I love Condeleezza Rice in a few years.
Hillary!!!!

I would love for Mccain to be prez, but he's not going to make it. I'd rather have Obama than Hilary, but the only person I wouldn't have rather than Bush is Chenney.

Crimzy was asking a question that had nothing to do with Bush...Yet you take your little jabs?...Do you think you are making a difference in this country? Yes we all know how you feel....Think you might be able to stay focused to talk about the point at hand..
I dont mean to flame.and I really wish you could hear my voice to know that I am not trying to be a jerk...I just dont want to see this Thread derailed into the same bog of back and forth most political threads end up...

I may be the only one here but I would vote for Obama primarily BECAUSE he was african american. Doesn't sound like he will have a lot of support though.

Mayhaps...I couldnt vote for some based completely on Race/---...With out knowing there standings...Seems about as insane as voting the PL's...But oh well...Its your vote and as a US citizen its your right to do so...

Obama just seems like a great guy. I would be very happy to see him elected! Hillary... well, I think September 11th would happen everyday with her as President. Caugh caugh bush caugh caugh is the best president we ever had compared to Hillary (if she were elected)! Time shall tell!

Thats kind of an odd post from you crimzy, has the tailspin in Ann Arbor made you hysterical?
You would vote for him because he is African American??? Don't care what he stands for? What if he decided he wanted to keep the war you hate so much going? Dosen't matter?
Just found this to be a strange post based on others i've seen from you.
