Of course, I'm sure all of the candidates are very good at that.<BR/><BR/>If he's so against being divided, why is he running this race as a Democrat against Republicans (and other Democrats at that)? And when did his name become synonymous with "change"?<BR/><BR/>I'm not against Obama. I'm not really big into being super behind one person. I don't believe that any one person will change this country. We have to support their beliefs, and their entire team. When it comes down to it, I guess most people just use "Obama" or "Clinton" or "Huckabee" as easier ways of saying "affordable health care" or "woman president" or "Christian morals" or whatever they believe.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, so I'm not sure why I just wrote a mini-blog. Just what I thought about.

I'm a big pro-lifer, but none of the candidates would end abortion anyway, and Obama is going to do a lot of good things for the country regardless of his views on abortion. <BR/><BR/>And I can't stand it when people complain about his "lack of experience". Lincoln was just as inexperienced as Obama when he became president and look what he did.

It was hard not to be completely swept away by his words and I sat there crying over the possibility that this man may be president. His voice just struck me so hard I felt blindsided and I could not imagine a president without the powerful boom and energy his possesses.
