Barack Obama for President !

I am supporting Barack Obama and his bid for the Presidency of the United States in the 2008 elections. I have never been as convinced or passionate about a candidate as I am for Obama. He is a good man who understands the plight of the poor and middle class. His values are strong but he is not an uncompromising ideologue. On the other hand, unlike Hillary Clinton, he will make stands and not give ground on fundamental issues. He was opposed to our preemptive invasion of Iraq and seeks to get our troops out as quickly and as safely as possible. His ideas of economic security, health insurance coverage, and education are sound and well reasoned. His foreign experience is first rate - he has lived abroad and served on the senate foreign relations committee. We desperately need a president who understands that there are real cultural differences in the world (and at home) and can work as a partner with others, not simply as an adversary. I intend to do everything in my power to help Barack Obama win the Democratic primary and the presidency in 2008. I encourage you all to learn more about the man and see why you should support him as well.
