This election is shaping up to be the most exciting in history. What does it take to be President? What does experience mean and does anyone running have experience? What about the new commercial - answering the phone at 3:00am, what does this mean to you? Does military experience, gender or ethnic/race background matter, should it matter?
I probably have as much to say about this topic as I do anything else in life right now.
I for one think we are fortunate to be experiencing this, a woman and a black man running head to head for President of the United States! Wow!!!
I like McCain's background but I think this country needs something new, different, this country needs what the Democratic Party is offering right now.
I don't consider myself a party person, I vote for the candidate and not the party (I think the party system is ridiculous).
Hillary Clinton is a tremendous candidate for president and even more impressive because she is the first woman to take on the historically male position. Her credentials are impressive for anyone running for the position. She is qualified.
Now we come to Barrack Obama. Barrack is a young man, not much experience in politics, bright, charismatic, and has vision.
There are many issues in the Middle East, the majority having to do with Muslims. Muslim men do not respect women. How could Hillary Clinton be effective as President with so much at stake in the Middle East?
Answering the telephone at 3:00am?
None of them will be answering the telephone, their cabinet will be doing that. Come on, give me a break!
Who is your candidate for President?

I haven't decided yet. I'm waiting to see who wins the democratic election. I do tend to vote republican, but I will vote outside of party depending on the person. I'm liking Obama so if he wins the nomination I might vote for him, maybe. Like I said, just waiting to see who gets it -- historically, it would be Obama before Hilary when you consider that the black population got their rights before women did. But yeah -- I'm just waiting for the battle to be over. Then I'll decide.
John McCain. I can't stand Hillary Clinton. I like Obama, but I just don't think he has the experience yet.
LoL. Sorry, but you asked. :-)
Oh my goodness...I did not know so many of my fellow quitters were Republicians. Interesting....I like Obama for his vision and I will vote the Democratice ticket. I think I have personally had enough of what has gone on in office for the last eight years. I am especially fed up with how the federal education funds are being spent. We are waiting for RIF (reduction in force) papers in California because there is no money for schools and teachers but there is plenty of money for defense. Hopefully I will not get a notice of non-reelection come this Friday. Wish me luck.
Peace,
