I would be very happy. I think he would do a great job because he listens when Americans talk!

By the way to the person who said something about his mistake about Kansas: He apologized for his mistake, right after he said it (though some of the press conveniently left that out)-he is very tired from running all over to do speeches and doing work in the Senate.
I live in Kansas by the way-I like people who can admit their mistakes when they happen instead of lying or covering them up! Every single politician will make a mistake, but I don't think Obama's will be major ones-he thinks everything through before he does it, usually, and he has a conscience.
Did you know Lincoln did not have much experience before he became President?
I like that he hasn't had a lot of time to get absorbed into the same old politics-with lobbyists and PACs: he does not accept money from those groups, and a whole lot of other politicians do: meaning their votes on policies will be bought by special interests instead of what the American people want!

Well, as of right now, I'd be a bit worried. I think he's made some serious gaffes lately and I was disappointed at his obvious nervousness in the first debate. He gave a terrible answer to what he would do if we were attacked.
All in all I think he's a very good man. But I stand with those who think he just isn't seasoned or experienced enough. Six years in a state senate doesn't lend itself to the federal level of experience that he should have to hold the highest office. I would love to see him as Hillary Clinton's VP though. Give that man a good eight to ten years of experience in Washington and he may end up being one of the best Presidents we have ever had. My opinion could change as the next year unfolds, but right now that is what I honestly think.

I think it would be awesome. It would be nice to see someone different in office who isnt like ANY of the previous presidents. I think he really encompasses change, and I think that the United States is desperately in need of that right now! However there are many other great canidates too!

Discrimination will be minimized if Obama will be elected.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know it Obama will likely win.

You know, if the person leading has nobody following they're just taking a walk!
No, Obahama is not "THE ONE".

He's ok, I guess, but he's sort of an idiot, isn't he?
Did you hear him say that 10,000 people died in Kansas from a storm? It was 12 who died. Is he stupid or prone to making mistakes in his speeches? Perhaps he's uninformed, but I don't think he should be put into power.
He talks cool, but I think we need smarter leaders, not dumber ones.

You have the wrong name you mean Osama bin Laden as Ted Kennedy once called him. I think it would harm America buy cutting and running form Iraq only tells are enemies we have no back bone and terror would run wild in Iraq. The war on terror won't be won over night it's the fight of are life's.

1) He has no accomplishments
2) He has no leadership experience.
3) He is very far left.
I would not be happy

Glad I don't have to worry about it.
