Barack Obama because Hilary Clinton is not everything she says she is. When her husband was president she was fighting for universal heath care but she was paid to be quite about that subject while Bill was president. When she says shes gonna do something, if someone with lots of money doesn't like that idea, she will take the money over pride. What has Barack Obama done wrong?

Barack Obama. He has more experience (8 years in state senate, will have 4 years in us senate by inauguration, and clinton will only have 8 years in us senate)
I also like how he has always been against the war in Iraq, he's a moderate democrat, and he wants to do, and has done a lot for education.
OBAMA 08 ALL THE WAYYY!

Barack Obama because I feel that he is the most honest person running in either party. And he hasn't been in Washington long enough to be corrupted. And as for experience. I agree with him, sometimes better judgement is more important than experience. He had the good sense to know that we did not belong in Iraq. He's an intelligent, compassionate man who believes in diplomacy first. He is a big supporter of Veterans. Check his voting record on BarackObama.com. He is big on stem cell research. He's just an all round good man.

If I had to pick, it would be Senator Clinton, simply because she has much more detailed policies and looks like she is more planned for the future of our country. Barack Obama brings up some good issues that I agree with, but he seems too laid back and has an "all talk, no walk" attitude. I think its just going to come down to who's more electable. But you can count on our next president being a democrat. All the 2007 polls put them in the front runners.

If I had my choice, I'd take Obama. He's another one of those candidates that I so often think; "Man, It would be great for this country if a guy like him had a chance." But frankly, I don't think he does. Hillary's name recognition and endorsements and other credentials in the Democratic party will be just too much to overcome.
I would vote for Daffy Duck before I voted Republican in 08; However. The party of Iraq and corruption will not get my vote until they support getting out and cleaning their own house - These are the defining issues for me right now...

If I had to choose, I would pick Hilary Clinton. She is not inexperienced and naive like Barack Obama is. Hilary Clinton has experience dealing with foreign dignitaries and Heads of State. Barack Obama has a lot of ideas but no clue how to turn them into reality. Plus, on several occasions(at his rallies), Barack Obama came dangerously close to playing the race card. He hasn't done it outright YET, but the fact that he "flirts" with it at some of his political rallies is all the proof you need that he is not qualified to be president.

Barack - He represents change and he listens to all sides before making a decision that it is in the best interest of all and not himself or circle of friends.
Obama- He is not afraid of adversity or letting you know where he stands and does not pander to anyone.
Barack Obama is my choice - Forget the partisan past and lets move on to a co-future by the people and for the people.

Barack Obama because there has never been an African-American president in the United States and I think we sould vote for him.
