His entire schtick is 'hope' and 'change' and last time I looked you can't run a country based on 'hope' and 'change'. The man has not done or said a thing that convinces me he is made of presidential timber...but he seems like a decent enough person.<BR/><BR/>His race is not a factor for me, and should he win the presidency I feel he'll be Jimmy Carter 2.0 - ineffectual and hamstrung by empty promises he made to his left leaning supporters. <BR/><BR/>Still, I feel he may be what is best for the country right now - his presidency will be so disappointing to both sides of the political fence that by the end of his first term the country will be ready to put aside ridiculous notions of race, red/blue, left/right, and concentrate on issues that actually matter...and then select candidates that stand for more than 'hope' and 'change'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37988601.post-34707132789483756552008-02-07T15:22:00.000-08:002008-02-07T15:22:00.000-08:00Not only are there voters out there whose only con...Not only are there voters out there whose only consideration is race, there are also voters out there whose only consideration is gender. Frankly, I think that Barack Obama (I'll leave Hill the Pill out of this) does have some qualities that make him a wise choice of a presidential candidate, but his race doesn't come into account for me.W&MGradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265485661317862583noreply@blogger.com
