Wow! Your are absolutely right! The middle name of a president is sooo important! Way more important than his platform, philosophy, or competence! Good lord, all this time that I have been researching candidates was a waste. I should have just been voting based on their names!
If I were obama, I wouldn't want the votes of people that are turned off by my name. Besides I would just lose in the next election when my opponent changes his name to "Superman."

Obama is a Christian, very well spoken, intellegent, and has some good ideas. He didn't pick his name, and people who are so shallow to use this as an arguement should have their voting rights revoked. Whether our not he is elected will hopefully be based on his ability to articulate his view better then his oponents.
The problem is 75% of the voters make up their mind based on 30 second commercials, political spin that is at least misleading if nnot outright lies. Bush was elected with a great spin artist (Carl Rove) and no ideas not paid for by big oil and drug makers.
I can here it now "A vote for Obama is a vote for Osama." Watch the debates, read the fine print, and ignore the name. If this isn't possible please stay home on election day.

I do not know exactly how he would fare against Hillary Clinton. All I know is he is probably wasting his time because unfortunately Hillary has many supporters. I think the election is at a very bad time. I probably would have changed my name if I was Barack Obama

hmm.... hate to tell you this, but Bush isn't going to be able to stay. We will elect a new president in 2008. Thus your "in the middle of a war" argument doesn't work because any change in president regardless of party results in a new direction in the war.
Yes, I would vote for him unless a better candidate comes along. He is the best of the choices I see so far.

i'd vote for Romney if those have been my in basic terms selections, yet considering there are third events i does not vote for the two. Romney grow to be in prefer of the bailouts and is a RINO globalist vs. Obama's revolutionary globalist stance. the version is purely too average to earn my vote if I even produce different selections. and people who do in comparison to Obamacare ought to word that it relatively is modeled on the Massachusetts plan put in while Romney grow to be governor.

Why should he have to? Most American's I would think shouldn't be racist or prejudiced over a freakin NAME. Get over it...you make yourselves look like bigots when you do that! America was a nation founded BY immigrants, of people with different backgrounds and ethnicities. Embrace it, don't separate it.

I'm gonna vote for him. His name means nothing to me. The fact that he is not a lying, cheating whore that will sell himself to the highest bidder means everything.
