What Do You Think Of Senator Barack Obama?

I think he is refreshing, he is not your typical politician. He really wants to change politics in Washington.

Public Comments

1. He is unqualified as of now to run the country. He should run for the Governorship of Illinois. Get some real experience for responsibility then try running again.
2. I think he is a creation of the media, like Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, two obscure Southern governors who began receiving undue publicity by mainstream media. In the same manner, the media continues to ignore Ron Paul. This is because his views are in direct opposition to those of the Council on Foreign Relations. The Council has great influence in the majority of large media outlets. I have heard some disturbing things about Barak Hussein Obama. I heard that he refuses to recite the Pledge of Allegiance or wear the customary lapel flag pin. In this nation, that is your right, but if you are seeking the presidency, I think it says a lot. I have seen a picture of him with Mrs. Clinton and two other people. They all have their hand over their hearts, except for Mr. Obama. Anyway, I'm voting for Ron Paul.
3. I am a conservative and feel if he had more expierence he may do good Maybe in the next couple of elections if he doesnt make anymore silly statements
4. I think he is an empty suit... no substance... It's sad that the Democrats have no one that has anything more than a populist appeal to run against whomever the Republicans will run... Shoot.. even An Gore is better than what is currently being offered.
5. His energy and commitment to change reminds me of JFK. Also think he will not repeat Kennedy's biggest mistake. Just imagine upcoming democratic primaries without him.
6. You conservatives really concern me. President Bush had experience as a governor and look how he has run the country. Who is to say how much experience is needed to run a country? Obama has experience as a senator and would know how congress works more than Bush would have. Most of our presidents of late have an ivy league education and yet still manage to screw up the country. The Obama pledge of allegiance story is a media lie by conservatives to slam Obama. If you bothered to check into it the alleged picture was taken during the national anthem. Obama sings the anthem by the way. As an American I do not place my hand over my heart while singing the national anthem. At least I sing the anthem, although many of our athletes don't even do that anymore during the olympic games. Nobody tells them they're unpatriotic. Who cares that Obama's middle name is Hussein? Honestly what happened to freedom of religion and seperation of church and state? If the presidents last name were Dahmer does that mean he must be a serial killer? Obama's middle name hardly makes him a dictator it just means he has Islamic background. He is also a distant cousin of Dick Cheney and has a Christian background. Do people really think he is going to take away Christmas and make everyone pray to Allah? Why is it so important to have a Christian in the whitehouse when we're not supposed to be mixing religious law with secular law? Surely not voting for someone based on religion is breaking the very constitution you claim to support. Wake up people. Try reading more than Fox News for a change and look for both sides of the story.
7. He is typically radical left but even more so than usual Democrats. The fact that he wouldn't even put his hand over his heart and stand up straight for the pledge of allegiance indicated to me that he doesn't deserve to be an American much less a President. Only an idiot, a communist or an islamic terrorist would support the jerk.
