Barack Obama is VERY pro-abortion. In fact, he even voted against this bill:

http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/legisnet92/summary/920SB1661.html

which would have provide medical attention to "failed abortions". What is a failed abortion? A healthy child, who is born alive instead of being aborted.. That's not abortion, it's infanticide.


Anyway, here is his stance on all the issues:

If you want a real answer, you can find them here or email him, you'll get a response.

otherwise, you can let the acolytes of FOX news tell you what FOX tells them.

Obama isn't pro-abortion. He believes like many Americans, that there are better ways to prevent them than banning them, which has clearly shown to do no good. There are logical steps to take to eliminate bad situations in our society, and if you ignore them, you'll only make them worse. jumping straight to an abortion ban is one that will. History shows this to be an accurate conclusion.
I don't expect you to agree with everything Obama believes, but I will tell you that he is one of the most honest politicians I have ever communicated with. Is that because of his character, or from his lack of exposure to the corruption of politics, I can't answer that. I can tell you that many of the candidates, have been in politics for far too long, and could give two hoots about how any of us feel on issues, as long as we vote for them.
If you find a candidate that you agree with 100%, he/she is either lying to you, or you are lying to yourself.

I can't really tell you who Obama's major campaign contributors are, but i can tell you he has recived alot of his funds from individuals like you or I, rather than larger donations from private groups.

yes because you know that is where your argument falls apart.
