The AND WHY? Is important. What issues are important to you in a candidate? Why do you think this person is the right candidate to be the president of the United States?

Barack. I like what he says and the way he says it.
Clinton is a liar, cheater, thief and crook in general and a fool.
Edwards is just a fool.
sam, your post was excellent!

I'd vote for Barack Obama. He brings something to this upcoming election that I think no one else has so far. He is refreshing, captivating, SMART, and a real person. I think he will be great and can lead our country back to where we need to be. Why does our country have to stick to a president that is a certain religion, race or even sex for that matter? The U.S. is supposidly all about equal opportunity, however we have only had white presidents. It's time for a change.

Barack Obama might want to get my vote. Hillary is pretend, plus we already had her in workplace... keep in innovations... bill Clinton! If Hillary receives the presidential nominee, i am going to vote for McCain. She's too pretend for me.

Well Edwards doesn't do anything for me so he's out. I'm very interested in the battle between Hill and Barry. I think either one would be a very good president (I mean, we can't get any worse than what we have now!) I'm concerned that many people are prejudice against Hill for one reason or another and they won't vote for her because of that and it has nothing to do with her politics thus a republican would win again! As much as I'd like a woman president, I think I'm leaning towards Barack because he's forward thinking, would get the minority vote, and hasn't p*ssed anyone off lately.
P.S. Everyone needs to pay attention more and stop listening to hype and slander. Figure it out for yourself, don't believe in rubbish!

I would vote for John Edwards. His message of 'two Americas' really hits home for me. I grew up in a poor rural community. And I've seen how the rich and powerful are using their power to get even richer. Today, the government is going into deep debt, and most of that money is going into the pockets of political friends. Edwards wants to change that. He wants our country to be better balanced. He wants those who benefit the most to also have the most responsibility for the welfare of the nation. He understands, from growing up poor himself, that nothing tears the fabric of America like economic stagnation. People who see no chance of an improved future are more likely to turn to drugs, crime, and violence. People who work hard and never get ahead lose their incentive for hard work. People who give their lives to a company only to see that company lay off everyone and move production to China understand that their government doesn't care about them, so why should they care about it?
This needs to change. And Edwards, because he has been on both sides of the Economic Divide, is the best candidate to take on these challenges.

Out of these three I would have to vote the lesser of evils and I think that distinction belongs to John. I think that Hillary was neck deep in white water scandal, I don't like her policies and she isn't likable (the likable part would not matter if she had anything else that did). Obama seems to be like a chameleon, he changes his view based on what crowd he is speaking to or fails to speak on issues but rather talks around them. I don't agree with John on issues but I do believe he would try to do what is right.
Sam that was a nice speech but Obama doesn't back what he says IMO. Did he vote in favor or against drilling for oil in Alaska? That would help stop the dependence on foreign oil. I am not against the war but I still respect what he said in this speech and would not have been upset if the Administration would have followed some of his advice. He speaks out about proliferation of nuclear weapons but gets upset when we go to war with Saddam who violated resolution after resolution. His action is not consistent with his speech. Then there are the other issues such as voting for abortion but against medical treatment for babies born after abortion failed, pushing for amnesty for illegal immigrants and his anti 2nd amendment stance. I don't think he will get my vote.

Way too early to form an opinion. The election is still along way off; you must listen to all the candidates from both parties, form an opinion once you have ALL the facts. Then you'll be an informed voter.......not one of the majority that vote for a candidate because of their personality or which party they represent, or who they're married too, etc.........etc.
Being an informed voter is everyone's responsibility....the problem with the last two presidential elections was the country heard and did not listen to what was being said, they voted for a party and not the man. They also ended up electing the worst of all candidates and the results of which, and I state only facts here.......the president lied to the country to get elected and the president lied to the country to get elected the second time........the US is in a war because of those lies........the US is in debt up to it's eyeballs to China and other nations to pay for the war..........the debt is so large that it will not get paid off for at least a generation.......the president violated the tenants of the American Constitution.........and in his latest State of the Union address he did it again......he boldly lied to the country again......by the way ----lying is an impeachable offense.........nuff said for the moment..........JUST BE AN INFORMED VOTER --it is YOUR responsibility.

Hillary, and a lot of people criticize her for being cold or whatever but really, I dont think that a woman politician can be anything else, she needs to be tough to be respected. I do however think that she would be an amazing president and put the country in very good shape - she is intelligent and maybe the country needs the touch of a woman to add a little something to it.

I can't really say that I would vote for any of them. I am wishing that somebody who has a real talent for running our country shows up.
