Did you want Barack Obama to win the election? I know this was a while ago, but I just wanted to ask. I did. He's doing better then Mcain wouldve been doing...

Yes I did. I agreed with most of his policies, and I thought he'd be effective at getting them through. I'm hoping that he'll prove me right.

I was a few months shy of voting at the time, but I wanted him to win. Now that he's in office I'm not sure it makes any difference.

No because he was a political hype train, I swear the only reason people at my school liked him was because he was black.

Actually, I think his foreign affairs policy has been one of the few things that he's been reasonably successful in. Yeah, he hasn't solved the Palestinian-Israeli issue (the ball is in Netanyahu's court now anyhow,) but he hasn't made any real mistakes and he's put in quite a solid effort to engage the Islamic world. If you're going to fault him on anything, that's probably the wrong one.

I voted for Obama, just like I voted for Gore, then Kerry...I hear too many people judging Obama and criticizing him already, when he has eight years of disaster to fix. In reality, you can't expect one man to fix the economy and win two wars in one year. It's impossible, I believe he should focus on two or three things at one time. He also is trying to resolve that healthcare issue, so I believe he's doing a great job for one year in office.

Yes, by then we'd already arranged at the Stonemasons meeting that Obama would win.

I didn't want him to win because his campaign was based on a single word and his policies did not delight me one bit. Of course, I don't have the right to vote yet, so what's my opinion worth?

I voted for John McCain, because he's a moderate.

i hope Obama's policy initiatives fail, because i think their success will result in the failure of American self-autonomy.

Aside from health care, you can hardly tell from the policies. Any progress on leaving Iraq? Patriot Act and No Child Left Behind still in effect? Debt still soaring? Feels just like Bush to me.

I especially enjoy how he's using my Tax dollars. Photo Ops and Trips to New York. Does anyone know what play he went to see while in New York?

I honestly have never heard of a President that Mocks the people of his country on National Television. What a Horrendous show of character.

I'm sure pausing every other word and using "Uh" as a filler is a sign of great intelligence. What's your source for the information on McCain?

Yeah, grades aren't always an accurate reflection of intelligence for your information. Anyone can be school smart, but it doesn't matter how well you do in the classroom. The only thing that matters is how efficient you are in the REAL world, and Obama is not efficient in the real world. Well, except for being a celebrity, that he's terrific at.

I think you have to be really careful when using intellectual capacity or academic credentials as means of gauging a person's quality as a politician. There are many examples of book smart politicians who had no clue what they were doing when it came to practical matters.

Well I voted for him...xaos
