Barack Obama seems to be the perfect candidate for this election. He believes in all the things I do. Barack supports civil unions, not gay marriages. He believes in the dealth penalty, and not jailing people for drug crimes. Our jails are full enough already to be filled with people who just smoke pot. He is also a real person, not a lying politican like Hillary. Is Barack the ideal candidate for the Presidency?

I like him. He is definatly something new and fresh and that might be just what america needs because so far it appears to me that we are in hot water. Furthermore, I would just like to say that I am so sick and tired of people saying that he isnt fit to lead or he doesnt have enough experience to do the job. Lets be real fr a moment. If Bush can get in there and not know a flip about serious politics , and we can have actors as presidents then I think he should be given a chance. He is a very intelligent man and that all you really need, the rest can be picked up along the way. There isnt an exact manual on how to be president so you basically get in there and use good common sense and pray. I Love Obama and I say RUN OBAMA RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obama is a far cry from being the best. If anything I would say he is the worst!
He has absolutely NO experience in running a federal government.
His handlers have done a real good job on him so far, but wait, the election season hasn't even begun yet.
When he actually gets in a race with the big dogs he will fall apart.
Notice how he fell apart when a female reporter asked him about his big ears? He is way too immature for a national election.
He sounds good when he speaks but good orating is not a qualification for being president!

"seems" to be the perfect candidate?
Well that's becasue he's never had to make any tough decisions to do anything, has he?
Being idealistic is one thing, being realistic is another. He's a slick talker, whitty, like a good rapper but he's never been tested.
In the world we live in, do you wants an inexperienced or an experienced one? One whose been battle tested or just sitting around playing game boy?
No, he's not Presidential material. Let him grow up a little bit, maybe 2012 or 2016.
Today would be like putting a rookie to run your team when you have Brady, Palmer, Manning, Roma, Burger, etc to choose from.

he is the perfect idiot for some idiots but not for this idiot, if I wanted to live in a Muslim society I would move there I would at lease let others live in a free society if they desired, why do you want to make us the same as you?? most of us love what little freedom we have left, why don't you? no Hilliary should not be president either she has to much blood on her hands, so I do hope they will have some decent candidate to run this time,

I think the verdict is still out. He is the darling of the media right now, so everyone likes him. Just wait until the Clinton machine tears into him. We'll find out what if any skeletons are lurking in his closet. If he gets through that alive he just might make it providing he doesn't let his far left wing colors show too much.

in view which you're unlikely the place conservatives flow. Get out of the coffee shop and head over to a superb cocktail residing room. perchance a clothing keep that makes a speciality of organisation fits. you know, those varieties of places. in case you in hassle-free terms refer to human beings in futon shops, that's all you're ever going to pay attention.

His strongest attribute is his extremely detailed and well-stated opposition to the Iraq War back in 2002. He said everything I was saying at that time.
But I'm still waiting for a full picture of him. I'm intrigued, but need to learn more.
[ADDED] I forgot to ask the Q I always ask the Romney guy and the person using "GO HILLARY" - are you an intern on the Obama campaign?

I'm sorry. When you ask "Does everybody like Obama..." are you speaking of Barrack Obama or Obama Ben-Laden? Just curious.

I have nothing against Obama as a person. I do oppose his political views, though.
