You know the guy who is running for president? what do you think about him? Do you support him? Why or why not? Is there any good information you can tell me about him because I don't know anything about him! Was he born in the U.S? If he wasn't which I heard on the news he wasn't a long time ago then how would he qualify to run for president? Don't you have to be born in the U.S to run for president? So let me know people! What do you think?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Gee, if he would actually adopt a platform we could answer that question. It seems to me no one knows what he stands for...

Obama is up against the best team in the lady Clinton. Beyond that, who knows. As usual the American people will make a wise choice. Let the race begin and the winner take all.
Obama was indeed 'born in the USA', which means he can run for the presidency.
There's a lot of interest here in UK.

Gigglez - go to Fox news...they usually come out with the most surreal stories. Last time Mr. Obama was declaring his love for a gay prostitute (or was it a seven year old girl...it woudn't surprise me if Fox rolled out that kind of story also).
Notice how many people roll out the same answer - '...But it's not his time yet', or 'he's not ripe for president yet'. Hilarious...bet the same dudes will be saying that even when he's in his early seventies - if he hasn't claimed the prize before then!

you have to be born in the us or on us owned soil to be president or have American parents if you're born in a foreign country. i like obama just fine but i am a hillary fan. from what i understand obama is a born again christian which i always find suspicious. maybe this is a plus for you though.

What difference does it make what I think of him. Pay attention for yourself what he does and what he says. Compare him to your values and the other candidates and then decide for yourself what you think. That is what should matter to you. What you think should be much more important to you than what I or anyonelse thinks.
By the way, the last I heard Hawaii, where Obama was born, is part of the United States.

I will vote against him because he is a globalist. I THINK he was born in Hawaii, but lived early years overseas, however, I am sure he has a web page you could look up if you are interested in him.
Frankly, I'm not.

We in the UK and Ireland don't have a say in US politics. Which is why we're stuck with the mess in Afghanistan and Iraq. Make up your own mind. After all, it is said that the USA is the greatest democracy in the world.

I hope they make Obama president. He's one of the few people who could save America.
Another FDR or Abe Lincoln, the kind of leader you need.

don't really like him. he's all media hype.
what exactly has he ever done except give one good speech at the democratic convention two years ago?
maybe in 10 years after he's proven himself politically...

Finally there is someone running who hasn't been tainted by power. I hope he and his family can ride this primary cycle out.
