Which person do you want to be America's next president? I personally want Obama, although I still wish Hillary would've gotten the nomination.... |

Am I allowed to choose none of the above? <_< I'm a Conservative on most issues but have a different view on some social aspects. That being said, I am a fan of neither of these candidates. Obama is way to far to the left for me (Sorry, Mizz :P) and McCain is not much better. He's got a better view on a few issues but is actually liberal on many others...  Anyway...

McCain I guess. I don't really like either of them. But McCain has better views on most issues IMO |

Indeed. I much would have had Romeny than McCain, but I can't do anything about it now. |

Trust me, if you had her as a senator, you'd know how completely useless she is. As for Obama, he speaks big, but anyone can do that-- it's the action that count. Regan could talk the talk and walk the walk. |

I don't particularly like Obama, nor Mccain, although I jut feel Obama is the better of two evils.... |

How so? I think McCain as the experience during war, which we need, and experience as a political leader needed for office qualifies him for President. Obama talks big, but like I said, anyone can talk well and appeal to people-- it's what they do and are for is what counts. I don't want to talk to terrorist groups, like Obama does, I don't want to pay for people because they are too lazy to work, like Obama does, and I want to help Iraq get stabilized and take-down terrorist organizations bent against this country and our allies. Talking to them will just make them seem more important and bigger than they truly are. You don't attack my country and then expect to be treated on par. Saying he can bring change means nothing to me-- prove it. He's a senator and he can enact bills proving how we wants to change things. |

Obama has also said quite a few things that have me worried as well. 1) http://youtube.com/watch?v=EpGH02DtIws That speaks for itself. 2) While one "off" association can be excused, Obama has surrounded himself with a number of controversial people (Wright, Airs, Flager, etc) 3) http://youtube.com/watch?v=ew5qP2oPdtQ I'm afraid size doesn't mean a whole lot. I'm not trying to turn this into an Obama debate but I just thought I'd throw those out there for people to consider. And trust me, McCain isn't much better in my eyes. |

Nor mine. However, he's all we got and at least he holds to some of my beliefs, while Obama and I have no belief in common at this point. |

Oh great. I hate politics, and everything about it. It's what happens when you read too much SW, since most Senators are corrupt, and the OR's last Chancellor was evil. Anyway, I'm staying out of this one. |
