I would vote for Obama.
Skin color matters as much as hair color.

Many people intend on voting for him..
I however can't, I don't vote based on race, gender or party affiliation, I vote on issues.. I cannot support a candidate that voted in favor of reauthorizing the Patriot Act, that cannot commit to withdrawing the troops out of Iraq by 2013, possibly later.. that hasn't ruled out using strikes against Iran and one that receives contributions from lobbyists, corporations and interest groups..
If Obama was really for the "change" he promises, he would have my vote.. but I feel he has neither the substance, the experience, nor desire to bring this "change"

I'm voting for Hillary this time around, but race has nothing to do with it. Before the primaries, I thought Hillary would be too polarizing and I really wanted Obama to inspire me to vote for him. Unfortunately, I just don't think he's got the experience yet to get elected. After seeing how he's performed in the debates, I've done a complete turn around and now think Hillary is more electable than he is. I think Obama has a great political future ahead of him, but I don't think his time has yet arrived.

Plenty of 'em.
And they're not in a "virtual tie right now" - she's eating his lunch AND his dinner right out from under him. Not in Iowa, New Hampshire, or South Carolina - but, everywhere else, she's more than 20 points ahead. The boy is dead meat.

Not me as he is pro-illegal immigration. The fact he is an African American has no bearing on it. But I have to add that I wont vote for Clinton either.

If it turns out that his agendas meet my priorities, then absolutely. My main concern is stem cell research for a personal reason that I'd rather not go through on Y/A again right now. Ability to walk? Skin Color? Ability to walk? Skin Color? The color of someone's skin is so trivial.

i would vote for him before i would vote for hillary.
this is ridiculous... they will both be horrible for america, but hillary is a socialist and wants to turn our country into something very scary.

I would not vote for Barack Obama because of HIS POLITICS ONLY.
Instead, I would vote for one of these candidates:
Tom Tancredo http://teamtancredo.org/home/
Mike Huckabee http://www.mikehuckabee.com/
Duncan Hunter http://www.gohunter08.com/
These three men are true conservative Republicans.
In other words, they aren't like the real liberal Bush has showed himself to be on many issues.
