Isn't it nice that we can have this discussion in a civil manner. We all want the best for our families and our countries. None of us know for sure who is the best candidate to accomplish that, if any of our choices are. We make our decisions hopefully based on the information that we have available.

Personally, I just do not know if we can stand 4 more years of what we've had. We are spending too much money and too many lives on this war that IMO and Obama's we should never have started. We need to fight terrorism, no doubt, just don't think we are fighting on the right front in the right country.

There are too many big businessmen and Saud's influencing our country's agenda. The Saud's are not our friends. Most of the 911 attackers were from Saudia Arabia as is Osama ben Laden. We need to wake up and end our dependance of foreign oil as soon as possible. We need to bring jobs back to America. We need change, and I think that Obama is offering the right change for these particular topics.

I do not agree with everything that he says, but I believe out of our choices, he is the best one. He's young and it would have been better for him to run a little later with more experience, but the times dictated that the time for him is now rather than later. So, we'll see. At least he brings a little youthful enthusiasm and optimism to the picture.
