Does Obama's speeches inspire like JFK? Is he too young for office?

Question

.
I didn't care for him as president at first. I must admit his political tone is inspiring (to me).

I don't trust Hillary.

McCain was my hero until the neo-cons beat him into submission.

Your thoughts please...

Answer 1

Yes, his speeches have a wonderfully inspiring JFK tone, which I think is what our jaded country needs. I don't think he's too young for office, and suspect the fact that he hasn't been in DC as long as many other candidates can be seen as a *good* thing, because it means he's not as mired in the politics as those who've been there a long time. It's not like he won't have a cabinet of experienced people assisting him.

Answer 2

Sadly, Obama's speechifying thus far inspires nothing - he is quite good and shaking hands and rolling out euphamisms, cliched phrases and plenty of hot air. As long as he meets the Constitutionally mandated requirements for the office, no candidate could be too young.
Hillary is a no-go - I'd love a woman in the Oval Office, but Hillary doesn't inspire any degree of confidence in her abilities outside of the circus of politics.
McCain ... I agree, he seems to have lost his spine somewhere along the line.
As with the past election cycle, not a single current candidate that I am aware of is particularly inspiring. I won't vote for "most likely to succeed " - I'll vote for "most likely to flip a desk and whack a lobbyist with a rolled up newspaper ".

Answer 3

I do not think this country is ready for ObomaNation there are several web sites either for or against him I will give you a paragraph found on one ,but you have to research for yourself as I would not want to try to persuade your vote one way or the other
Most politicians voting stats are online .Of course Nancy has a bill coming up with an amendment that would make their voting record private instead of public.
.Here is the paragraph
{The question was asked of Obama, should the heinous act of partial birth abortion be outlawed in America? Twice Sen. Obama answered no! When he was asked if a child, who might miraculously survive the sentence of death by abortion, be protected from an abortion doctor after surviving? Sen. Obama said no! (See Born Alive Victims Protection Law.) Has he no conscience? Is he misinformed on the facts of these barbaric practices? His response to these questions is not indicative of the community’s beliefs, and certainly shows a low degree of conscience and moral fiber.} END PARAGRAPH

Answer 4

I'd rather cast a vote for Obama than Hillary. (Although I'd love to see Bill as the first ever 1st Gentleman)

Seriously, the President has a lot of power, but we have put a lot of trust in Cabinet members, and I think Obama is a fine choice for president. We have made the office SO much more about personality than qualification (hence Bush's 'win') and I think that Barack is EXACTLY the sort of personality we all want speaking on our behalf, and that Hillary, despite her qualifications, does not have a personality condusive to the Oval Office.

Answer 5

Obama will never be elected in this Country. He is black. Plain and simple. This is not a racist statement, it's just the truth. Middle America and the Southern States will never vote for a black man as President of the USA. If he runs, he is wasting another candidates' votes which risks losing the election to another bumbling Republican. Did you know that he was also born and raised a Muslim? Muslims are extremists yes? no?
He may have the gift of gab like Reagan, and be somewhat handsome, but never in a million years. This Country is not ready for it. No matter how much money Oprah donates to his campaign. I can't believe people would waste their votes on a Republican in the next election - when will they learn their lesson? and admit they blew it and made a Huge mistake with Bush? Most Republicans use the Born Again/Religious factor to get votes - Obama is trying to conceal his Muslim background for this reason - he knows America will never vote for a muslim.

Answer 6

Honestly I have not heard one of Obama's speeches. But I will say he is not too young for office. I think he can be president, he just isn't my choice. I personally would like to see McCain myself, but I will have to see who gets the final nod.

Answer 7

It's a year before the primaries so I'm in no rush to make a decision. McCain, Clinton and Obama aren't the only people running. I want to look at all of my options, both republican and democrat.

Answer 8

Sorry , there is not any comparision! John F. Kennedy grew to become right into a president that stood on his own 2 ft! Obama on the different hand has speeches written for him! no longer in basic terms that , Obama is interior the wallet of the transnationals! This grew to become into sale out of u . s . a . of america government for yet another u . s . a .! I enable you artwork out the "different u . s . a .".

Answer 9

obama may be right for the job,because he has not been completely corrupted yet. hillary no,20 years of bush/clinton is too much,no need to add to it. Mccain i agree with you on he allwed himself to be punked for the party.
repubs running on abortion and gay marriage are very much un needed,they are not presidential concerns.

Answer 10

I think a younger president is what we need and besides he my learn something to after being in office if he wins. Beside aren't you tired of wrinkles.
