I don't think he has a chance.

I think he's great. He's not your typical Washington puppet. He's got fresh ideas and has the charisma to get with it.

This country needs a change. Bush dragged us into a deep hole. Whomever is the next President had better have the thick skin and stamina to get us out of Iraq and to put this country back on track to the powerful nation that we are.

He has the talent of double talk down to a fine art. He is against the war, wants more money for defense and supports the troops. More money is needed for what? The war that he is against or for the troops(Who are fighting that war)? His views change according to who he is addressing. He is a co-sponsor of an amendment to give illegals amnesty. I have other problems with some of his views and thus will not vote for him.

I used to like him, but after careful research I don't anymore... In fact I'll take any of the democratic nominees over him... Here's why

Barack Obama..has made it fairly obvious he is opposed to the war in Iraq, but what about entering a war with Pakistan and Iran now, immigration, the economy, why did he reauthorize the Patriot Act?

Here is some extra information People tend to not talk about when it comes to the top tier candidates:
Barack Obama
-Military action in Pakistan if we have actionable intel. (Aug 2007)
-Fact Check: Yes, Obama said invade Pakistan to get al Qaeda. (Aug 2007)

-Voted NO on declaring English as the official language of the US government. (Jun 2007)
-Voted YES on establishing a Guest Worker program. (May 2006)
-Voted YES on allowing illegal aliens to participate in Social Security. (May 2006)
-Register women for draft, but not for combat. (Jul 2007)

Well, he will be on a ticket with Hillary; the only question will be whether he will run for President or VP -

regardless, they will win. We have had enough government by fundamentalist reactionary.

I prefer my senators to do their job, not to waste their time campaigning more than a year before the election.

He's too naieve and idealistic. He's a wimp and unrealistic in his goals.

I am ashamed to have him as a sentator.

That said, I'll take him over Hillary. (barely, but I would)

Thinking about it, I could vote for this guy just to shut Sharpton and Jackson up!
