I endorse Senator Barack Obama because he is not a game player. Rather, he is a gentleman who embraces America, a country with both virtues and flaws. He is a politican determined to strengthen the positives and eliminate the negatives. Obama genuinely cares about all of us, no matter our socioeconomic status, educational background, religion, or race. Unlike his opponent, he does not perceive the presidency as his divine right; instead, he will turn his presidency into the opportunity to right the wrongs of our society. He will lead us forward, not take us backward.

I intend to vote for Hillary in the Democratic Primary. She is smart, tough, and would be a great president. However, if Barak should win the nomination, he would have my vote in the general election. Either one is highly preferable to John McBush. The Democratic party is blessed with two highly qualified, charismatic candidates, quite different from the likes of Dukakis and Kerry, for example. We should be so lucky.Let's not blow it! This campaign is like a garden tea party compares to some of the bitter campaigns of the past.

I am very excited about voting for Hillary Clinton to be the first woman president of the United States! She is accomplished, brilliant and has dedicated her life to uplifting the lives of her fellow citizens, particularly working on behalf of women and children.

Read her autobiography! Along with her experience as Senator for 8 years, she worked with the Children's Defense Fund, the Legal Services Corporation, 12 years as First Lady of Arkansas and 8 years as First Lady of the U.S. She will be the greatest president of our lifetime, and I can't wait to vote for her!

As our nation's financial crisis grows worse by the day, we Americans need more than ever, a strong candidate who is no stranger to fighting on behalf of this country's middle class. They must have real solutions that can steer the economy back in the right direction and allow hard-working Americans who a struggling just to exist, a chance again at the American dream. We also need a candidate who believes all Americans have the right to vote, and demand that each and every one of their votes be counted. This includes the votes in Michigan and Florida, which have already been cast and certified by their states. If these voters are disenfranchised, the voting results of this primary will be flawed and illegitimate. This is why we democrats need Hillary Clinton as our presidential candidate at this critical time in our nation's history. She has developed a clear plan for the recovery of our nation's economy and for the restoration of a strong middle class. In addition, she is the only unifying candidate who continues to call for the inclusion of ALL votes cast in this primary from ALL fifty states. I will proudly cast my vote for Hillary Clinton on April 22nd because she is the stronger of the two candidates who can win against John McCain in November.

For over 35 years, Hillary Clinton has fought to promote America's working class and worked to strengthen our economy. As president, she will work to restore the American dream, confront the growing housing crisis, provide affordable access to health care. If you want to know what kind of change Hillary is going to deliver, look to the change she has already delivered. Hillary will deliver real solutions to our nation's biggest problems.

Obama to me seems like the only choice number 1 because he has proved over and over that he is ablout something new something different. Clearly that is what our country is lacking. I am worried that Hillary is only wanting to continue her husbands "legacy". Until this election season I was a Bill fan, but he has proven that he could not have the slightest idea about how to handle himself. I am embarassed and ashamed when i listen to him speak and it would be embarassing if he in a way represented our counrty again. 2 Hillary is tearing the party apart. She endorsed McCain over Obama. It showed me selfishness and that she is power hungry and it is disgusting that one person could be so negative. Barack has showed graced and composure this whole time. Never selling anybody out for gain, never saying what people want to hear for votes. He had my vote a long time ago and even more so after I saw him speak. I would be proud to call him our President.

Voters should scrutinize the personal choices (e.g., choosing 'Black Liberation Theology') of a candidate which can influence his perception of the world and events taking place in the world. 'Black Liberation Theology'

teaches an Anti-White Ideology.

Why did Barack Obama listen to 'Black Liberation Theology' for 20 years and give significant amounts of money to support the preaching of it?

Watch Reverend Wrights speech. Barack watched that live but then LIED about seeing it. He watched his racist "uncle" spew venom for twenty years. Rev. Wright demonstrated hatred towards the rich, white people, now he is building a $1.5 million house in a predominately white neighborhood outside of Chicago. Odd. WE DO NOT KNOW BARACK. And, for who are crying about the Bosnia remark-- I'd rather have a president I know, who might forget about her greeting when visiting her 80th country than someone who condones hatred toward white people but then wants our vote. Not mine.

I look for a candidate who is intelligent and a problem solver. (As opposed to someone I'd like to have a beer with). Both candidates have outstanding intellectual abilities; it is as problem solver that I believe there is a large gap. Hillary is the most divisive person in American politics. She motivates the Republican base and chases away independents. I believe Mr. Obama sees multiple sides of issues, and concedes that Republicans do have some good ideas occasionally. He will be able to solve the problems that confront a President as well as win bipartisan support for those solutions.
