Why do people believe Obama is the right choice for president?

Question

Also, whats going on with all the celebrity support for Obama? [ rappers ]

Answer 1

Because people have seen what happens when you let a republican run the country. Bush senior(gulf war) then came Clinton and we had the best 8 years when he ran the country. Then came Bush junior (the war in iraq). Barrack Obama is smarter than Mccain. Also he knows better than to start a war for oil and blame it on terrorism. If it was a war on the terrorists who attacked us then what are we doing in iraq? Last time I checked Bin Laden is in Afghanistan.

Answer 2

Do You Smell What Barack is Cooking ??

Answer 3

i am not sure. he seems to young and "untested". i may vote for nader. i know a wasted vote but, oh well. i do not exist anyways..

Answer 4

Probably because his platform is much better for the country.  And, after 8 years of Bush they hate Republicans. And, McCain is the other option.

Celebrities tend to be liberal Democrats.  Nothing new in that.

Why is "rappers" in brackets?  I don't think Oprah or George Clooney or Stevie Wonder or John Legend or Cheryl Crow are rappers.

Answer 5

Affirmative action, that's pretty much the only reason they want him.

IF ... JUNIOR U.S. Senator OBAMA was a WHITE man WITH the SAME LACK of Qualifications, HE would have been - L A U G H E D - out of the Nomination process ... in the BEGINNING !!!!

Answer 6

It's mostly really old people or youngsters that want Obama to win. Why? I have no idea. I guess they just want to see the country fall. Look at what happened at the Republican meeting. All those Democrats whining outside. Poor things.

Answer 7

Because he's intelligent, an overachiever, generous, and most important of all, a Democrat.

Obama was elected first black president of Harvard Law Review and graduated at the top of his class.

Meanwhile McCain is a spoiled brat just like Bush who graduated at the bottom of his class.

Answer 8

I'm really not sure, however, it scares me.  The democrats need to look past his fake policies and good looks to the substance behind him.

(There is no substance, by the way)
