Barack Obama?

Question

I'm just curious, would you ever like to meet Barack Obama & why? What questions would you like to ask him?

Just a quick question, how much experience does he have with politics? [in years]

I've heard he was in the senate for 2 years, and thats all of the experience he has..is this true?

Answer 1

no desire to meet him

Answer 2

I would, very much so. He seems like a very charismatic, sharp individual. Plus he’s a leading candidate for the office of the presidency of the United States of America.

What would I ask him? There are many things I could ask him about. His views on health care, terrorism, the economy, etc. One thing I would not ask him is why he thinks there are so many ignorant Americans out there. You know, the ones who think he has some connection to the Islamic faith just because of his name. (Never mind the fact that his father, whom he was named after, became a atheist long before he was ever born and left when he was only a child. Or the fact that he grew up mainly in Hawaii and only spent a few years in Indonesia, where he went to a public, non-religious school.) Nor would I ask him if he thinks the British authorities should investigate Miami Heat center Shaquelle O’Neal for possible IRA connections.

Answer 3

He's been in politics for the past 10 years. Two years ago he arrived on the National "scene", before that he was a state senator in Illinois.

Answer 4

First off, I'm a Republican, but I would like to meet him as well as almost any other politician regardless of party.

I would ask what he would do in Iraq, and see what he says. I doubt he would have a good answer other than 'pull out by March 2008'. After that I would ask if he thinks Iran is a threat to America, and what he would do with Iran. Also, he probably wouldn't have an answer.

Answer 5

Yes I would, and I'd ask him what he thinks will happen in the coming constitutional battle between congress and the executive. Yep - two in the Senate, but he's also a constitutional law professor.

Answer 6

I'd like a logistical explanation from this guy on how he plans on pulling the troops out of Iraq, and what security guarantees he would leave the people in the middle east with, particularly those country's that are susceptible to Iranian aggression?

Answer 7

what a bunch of nadless weasels have preceded me in this answer.

i would very much like to meet this guy - he has steel balls!

did you see the way he dealt with that right wing tool from australia - asked when they would be sending more troops - brilliant.

i also loved the way he dealt with fox news - cut off their access to him - again brilliant - roger ales was on the phone with a personal apology right away.

all of those pukes that have preceded me in this are no doubt afraid of a truly strong man, who would make a GREAT president!

Answer 8

Most of the above answers are from Republican neocons who seem to be scared to death of him. I'd like to meet him just to find out what it is that they fear so much. They must not have much faith in the their own potential nominees. Yes, I'd really like to meet this man who inspires so much fear in the opposition.

Answer 9

Actually I would probably rather meet most of the people who have just answered your question and ask them how they could be so ignorant.

Answer 10

yes,he seems like a outstanding flaming liberal,I would ask him ,just exactly how he could fix the Iraq problem ,as he said he could,then I would ask him if he is a NRA member,then I would be sick of him..do a three step out the door,,.decider

Answer 11

No I would not. Why? Because he told a crowd of people on his first day out that he was against the war and over 3,000 of brave American soldiers died for NOTHING!! Then the next day he apologizes and said it was a slip of the tongue.

Sorry, but I said before he should hold his tongue about these issues right now, this early in the game...but he just doesn't.
