I started a similar McCain thread so I wanted to do the same for Obama. Why do you support Obama? Please refrain from comparing Obama to McCain or posting any anti-McCain remarks. I want to know why you're voting for Obama

Perhaps using the ignore button in this case would be best. We cannot force anyone to raise the level of political discourse.....only suggest it. Kudos to you for starting threads meant to spark open and honest ideas and thoughts....rather than ugly slander and ugly words.

Calling Obama "sooo intelligent" because ___ in a joking way.

~How can Obama not hate Jews, and not hate all 57 states of America?~


Maybe ask McCain, who respects and admires him and considers him to be a decent person.

~Who really pays any attention to Colin Powell any more?~


Fox News sure does.


They sure didn't before he endorsed Obama, and neither did any other news channels.

I don't have much to add to the positive responses already offered.

Oh, and if anybody wants to ask me why I think I've got a right to be here expressing my opinions re: the election, etc., the past few weeks of global financial collapse originating in the USA comes to mind amongst other things.
