I am a conservative Republican, and I would like to see Rudy Giuliani in office. All thought he is pro choice and for gay rights he is great on security. Thats why hes got my vote(if i can. I am 14 *tear* ). All thought I think it would be great if we had an African American(Obama) or a Women(Hillary) in office, but at the time where America is at right now we need someone strong on security. But thats just my opinion. Whats yours?

I'd vote for a Republican or Independent over any Democrat any day.

Glad to see at 14 you are taking the right, priviledge, and responsibility of voting and good citizenship seriously. At this point in our national crisis partisan voting does not matter much anymore. What does matter is whether you think and vote conservative or liberal.
I agree with you that race and gender should no longer be an issue but, in the real world of middle America, it is. Some will be leery of Sen. Obama not only because of his race but his Islamic name and faith (we are at war with "extremist militant" Moslems remember). He has the ideals we need now but that does not make for an effective strong president. I wish him the best though. As for Sen. Clinton underneath the "I'll tell you whatever you want to hear" personality is a very hard and selfish person. She does not think of what is good for the populace but what is good for her. 8 years of her and her husband in the White House was almost more than this country could stand. How quickly we have forgotten. And also in the mideast the leaders there will not shake a woman's hand in public - how effective can she be if they will not ackowledge her? I know very little about Giuliani other than being mayor of NYC is comparable to being president of an entire country. But I think he handled the 9/11 crisis better than anyone else could have. He will be very strong on national and international security but there's more on the agenda than that. Sen. McClain looks like a strong leader with experience, authority, and discipline but a little short on tolerance and compassion. Remember though -- it all changes once that oath of office is claimed!

I lived in New York for the greater portion of my life, and love Rudy! I don't think that it would be a good time for him to run, though, as too many people want to get away from Republicans right now.

Being a fiscal conservative over all else, I like Giuliani. He did great things in NY and has a great track record.

Giuliani all the way! While I dont approve of gay rights and im i think abortion is only right in certain situations (rape for instance) i would vote for him mostly because of how he handled 9/11

Rudy, Obama, or Hillary can not be elected because they want to take our guns, and security starts at home.

The closer to Barry Goldwater, the happier I'll be.
I don't want the Dems in my wallet and I don't want the Repubs to tell me what I can do in my bedroom.
Rudy would be acceptable to me. As far as you Evangelicals, do not think for one minute you'll be able to practice your religion after the Marxists gain control.
Rudy is reasonable, and has courage and experience. I disagree with him on many issues, but Goldwater is dead so I'll just have to settle for reality. I suggest all anti-socialists do the same.

I think people need to open their eyes. It's not about woman, man, black, white, whatever - it's about who you believe is going to do what's best for our country, our world, our people. Somebody who is going to make the tought decisions, to talk to the people and explain that we need to make sacrifices to secure our future. I want the honest one, not the one who is going to fog our brains with promises of putting rebates in my pocket and securing our borders.
More importantly, I want everyone to vote - we need drastic change in our country - and that requires everyone to get off their lazy asses and vote.
