Obama won, I am proud to be part of this historical moment. I believe that is a step foward in this country and in the world. What do you think?

Behling · 4th Jun 2008, 06:53 PM

I prefer Clinton to Obama but since Obama won I will support him

-joins the list of people who prefer Clinton but will support Obama-

jazzrawr · 4th Jun 2008, 07:18 PM

I don't even live in the U.S...but Obama seems cool. I support him. ^.^

sdc91 · 4th Jun 2008, 07:32 PM

I'll have to join the people on that list, too. I will definitely support an Obama-Clinton ticket!

Obama's a good public speaker and motivator. Good president, I don't know. I think Clinton would make a better one, but maybe he'll surprise us. His lack of experience shows when he's not teleprompted . . .

beckyg · 4th Jun 2008, 07:34 PM

Barack Obama will make an excellent President.

Beebo · 4th Jun 2008, 07:38 PM

Obama stole my heart from the begining. Beautiful speaker. Lets hope he doesnt choke on too many pretzels.

**lostinthought9** · 4th Jun 2008, 07:49 PM

i disagree, Hillary is a waaaay better candidate for presidency....i have not decided if i will support obama, or an obama-hillary ticket...

4th Jun 2008, 08:11 PM

Well, in life we have to accept the facts. I am a proud Obama supporter ,and I think he deserves to become president.He is inspiring, and rely on hope like me. This guy is coming from nowhere, and his blac. He is now a big american figure. He gave me hope, I know that I can touch my dream if I just believe. Thank you senator and soon to become president Obama

LOVEjames · 4th Jun 2008, 08:14 PM

My only problem with Obama is his lack of experience. I wish that he had been a senator a little longer than he has, and actually got some government experience. I think that Hilary has a lot of experience, and I value that. But on the other hand, a fresh perspective would be good for things... eh. Whatever's good for the Democratic Party.

sdc91 · 4th Jun 2008, 08:16 PM

That's my problem with him: he relies on hope. If that works out and unites everyone, he'll be a great president. But I'm not totally sure on that. Right now it just sounds like stump speeches.

Anyway, that's just my two cents. Don't get me wrong, I respect and like Obama. I just have my misgivings.

LOVEjames · 4th Jun 2008, 08:18 PM

Yeah... and like. I think we can all agree that he's one of the best speakers of our time, but it seems like that's just all he has going for him. I mean, he's good to the point of developing a cult following, but what else is going to happen when he doesn't have to make speeches all the time?

4th Jun 2008, 08:36 PM

Just a bunch of bogus promises with all due respect,Sen. Clinton was much better qualified so now I'll vote for McCain.

LOVEjames · 4th Jun 2008, 08:41 PM

I don't understand gay people, gay-supporters, voting for McCain. It just freakin' -baffles- me.

4th Jun 2008, 08:50 PM

I am with you on that. They bashing Obama to support Mccain who say that Gay marriage is moraly wrong. I think that Those who are going on Mccain would never vote on a black guy in a first place. I am not scare to say that , there are still those feelings around us. If we want people to respect us and accept us we have to start respectif ourselves. Just for my pride I would never support someone like Mccain who does not see me like a normal human being and a normal citizen.

LOVEjames · 4th Jun 2008, 08:53 PM

Ugh, yeah. I heard my mother say the other day, "I won't vote for him. He's black." - I'm like, "... your child is half-latino and your nephew is half-black. And you're being a racist?"
