Symbolically for me, Obama & the white house represents the American people, of every race, giving us all a voice. But covered with the black skin that was so despised. We have all finally come into our own. This is America we are one people.

People may have lost faith that their words can actually make a difference. In a city that always votes in one direction, such as democratic, it is easy to avoid taking a stand. If you vote democratic, in principle, then you can say, “Oh, I don’t need to vote; the democrats will win anyway.” Or the converse, “Oh, there is no reason to vote, the republicans never win here.” But, all we have is our word. We should make it count! I intend to vote.

Keep up the good work Victoria!

We’ve had a lot of problems these last eight years due to the Republican regime. I’m in agreement with Mary, deregulation and deficit spending has really hurt us a lot. That’s why I could NEVER vote for McCain. He’s another Bush with grayer hair. And I’m not looking for another Bush to run this country to the ground. Up until last month he was still praising Bush, now he’s trying to distance himself from him so he can get elected. He’s even trying to gain the women’s vote by bringing in Palin. (Don’t get mne started there.) As if that’s not enough, he’s changed his slogan to ‘Change’. The good ole boy is now going for ‘Change’. But like Biden said at the debate last night, what are going to be the differences in his policies with George W’s?

Most of the good politicians I’ve known have been ‘community organizers’ who have worked with the people and know and care something about them. I don’t get that from McCain. What I get is an ex-soldier, who knows a lot about war. A war I want to see ended.

I don’t feel we always have to be in unity to move forward. We need to vote and think for the person we as individuals want in office. Sometimes a different decision can be the start of ‘Change’. And for me that’s where Obama comes in.

One more thing, the most experienced candidate is not always the best candidate. Remember it wasn’t a beginner that got us here. It was an experience candidate. New blod can make a hell of a difference. Another thing to remember is that the President doesn’t make any decision by himself. He surrounds himself with experienced advisors, and his cabinet.

Thank you.

This media is a great form because it is the only truly unbiased media. It reminds me that we should all remain free thinkers and not be swayed by the rhetoric of the print and news media. We should open our minds and form our own educated opinions on whom to vote for outside of media influence.

We should vote for the candidate that best embodies what this country stands economically in a free market economy and stay away from socialist ideals that have crippled other countries.

We should vote for the most experienced candidate, and the candidate who can lead us back to prosperity. An inexperienced political leader can potentially be disastrous for this country in this fragile time.

We can’t afford to have a candiate like Barack Obama. We must regain the republican stance of fiscal conservativeness. In these fragile economic times we cannot afford to have a president who’s programs will force taxes to go up for the middle class. We must have less government not more government and a president who actually stands for the issues as evidenced by his voting record. We need a leader that when faced with a decision will not vote “present”. That is not a leader and not what America needs.

In midst of the failed economic policies and the subprime mess that we are in. We cannot afford to have a president who’s policies led to this mess. Barack Obama once sued Citibank under the CRA for not granted enough subprime loans, Obama thought it was appropriate that Citibank customers literally show their welfare income to qualify for mortgages. The same President who had more political contributions in four years than any other politician. We cannot afford to have our interests represented by special interests.

We are about America, We are about Unity, We are about patriotism, and leadership. John McCain embodies those qualities.

When looked at the picture unbiased from media pressure, I see my embodiment for the next president of the United States, John MCain.

Even in the unlikely event a true independent is elected to the white house, they would still be under the influence of the government machine. Radical change is possible, but it will take several hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

Even so, I am happy and confident that the change will happen.

thanks for listening, Best, Mary
