Why Should I Vote for Obama?

[QUOTE="omfg_its_dally"]Because he won't die in office and leave us with the Governor of Alaska leading the country.Theokhoth

Since you can't tell the future, you really can't use "McCain will die in office" as a reason.:|

And that governor of Alaska is more experienced than Obama.

No she dosent

Yes, she is. Check out the thread about McCain choosing her.

People in alaska have already said she didnt have enough expreince enough said and its you faild still why would i got to a thread republicans made?

You went to this thread, didn't you?

He has committed to stopping the war in Iraq.

So has McCain.

Not in the same time frame or with the same intent.

He has committed to spending a good chunk of change on alternative energy.

So has McCain.

Not in the same amount, and not with the same intent.

He has committed to ending our dependence on foreign oil.

So has McCain.

Political BS. No one on the right will invest in ending our dependence on foreign oil unless they can make money off of it.

He has committed on lowering my taxes.

At the expense of raising the taxes of other citizens.

BS, what tax bracket might you fall into fine sir?Mccain will "lower" taxes for all, with the higher income families benefiting more.

He has committed to fighting for equal rights.

Vague.

So is fighting terrorism.

He has an overall quality that I like. He seems smart and engaging, not stand offish, negative and foolish.

Politically irrelevant.

Just like 90% of both presidential campains.

He is a product of America. What I mean by that is he has had a life that required hope and faith to get from where he started to where he is. He had no blood money or "ins" to politics.

Politically irrelevant.

I think you are wrong here, because I feel that Obama can make a decisions based on his life which will reflect the majority of America.In other words, I feel more connection with someone from a broken home who worked his way to the top, as opposed to a wealthy out of touch person. It is a personal opinion, but I feel politically relevant. It wokrs both ways though, you can say that McCain holds your values close because you have had a similar upbringing and life ****

He is pro-choice, pro-women, and pro-family.

Pro-Live Birth Abortions, Anti-Children, Anti-family (he voted against notifying parents of minors who sneak out of state just to get an abortion; not very pro-family).

IMO he is very pro-family. Sorry we just do view the world the same.

He will appoint justices to the supreme court that are more in line with my view of the world.

Good for you.

Is there enough material in there for you to disagree with or do you want to start calling each other names?

That's enough.

Yes it is

Theokhoth

Here's a link to that Thread. Link

I don't know if omfg_its_dally is a republican.

Not in the same time frame or with the same intent.

16 month troop withdrawal. Intent is subjective.

Not in the same amount, and not with the same intent.

What amount and what intent?

Political BS. No one on the right will invest in ending our dependence on foreign oil unless they can make money off of it.

Good thing that McCain is very moderate. There's a reason why a large chunk of the right hates him.;)

BS, what tax bracket might you fall into fine sir?

Middle cIass Obama wishes to raise taxes on the upper cIass even higher to support the middle and lower cIasses. This is not right.

So is fighting terrorism.

Terrorism is an actual threat.Who doesn't recieve equal rights?

IMO he is very pro-family. Sorry we just do view the world the same.

You have a very strange definition of pro-family.

Bush was the absolute worst president ever.eggdog1234

We've had worse, MUCH worse.

Sad to say, but most people hate Bush because they dwell on the Iraq war and gas prices, rather than educated positions.

It's somewhat like a fad, to bash the current president.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like Bush along with most neo-conservatives, but some people bash him just because it's the thing to do.

prejudice =/= racist

Wow...

After reading that, you persuaded me not to support Obama anymore. Still unsure about McCain though.

Hmm, well, the first was (not) very interesting, but I kind of zoned out after that.deepdreamer256

There are other presidents in the past who were much worse. The way I see it, Bush was the wrong man at the wrong time (9/11, Iraq War, Hurricane Katrina, etc). And there are several instances that scream "CONSPIRACY!" such as the investigation after 9/11.

All I posted was links to his voting record and to various news websites. I interjected my own opinion in some points, but I didn't say anything truly arbitrary until the end.

Didn't say it was. It just screams conspiracy due to the incompetance of the Bush administration, conspiracy theorists had a field day with it.

Obama is giving a speech right now and it's so annoying how their party is trying to create success by trying to drive home the lie that the country has taken a horrible turn in the last 8 years as far as jobs. It's blatantly false. Statistically, the unemployment rate has gone down in the last 8 years! Also, every single time I've tried to get a job in the past 8 years, I've been able to. All of these lies they tell to get elected are making me sick. The factory that I'm out has all kinds of openings at the moment. I guess his followers just take everything he says as truth automatically.Trashface

Don't worry there is a reason I haven't posted in this topic yet, just like all Obama Topics it's full of mindless blaber about Stuff that doesn't matter. That's typically how obama's campaign has run.

I'll give this topic one last bump to say that I'm glad this topic has raised awareness on the policies of Obama and has inspired similar McCain topics that have done the same. Now we can have more informed decisions on who we vote for. And that's what matters most.

Now to brag: three people have told me that this topic has changed their minds about voting for Obama. :D:P8)

When Obama first started to run, I used to say I would rather him be President than Hillary. A little before the Jeremiah Wright thing, I was beginning to see that there was nothing behind his words and that he was basically a media/ democrat golden boy being manufactured. Then came the Jeremiah Wright thing and him lying about reciting from the Quran in school where he was, in fact enrolled as a Muslim. I'm not saying he IS a Muslim, but these details were made to look like lies. The point of all this is that I don't want him to lose because he is a democrat. I want him to lose because I think he would be very very dangerous to our country and if there were a republican who scared me as much, I would most certainly vote against that republican. The primary reasons people are backing Obama is because he's black and they hate republicans.
