Just thought i'd say this, i do like Obama more than Hillary and i'll tell u why. America needs a change, thats obvious, maybe the more change the better. And i am not talking about changing to a woman president or changing to a black one, I am talking about changing the foreign and domestic policies, maybe not getting into stupid wars and changing the way America is viewed by the rest of the world. Now lets just see who fits the bill better. Obama, who seemingly is defiant of the way the public perceives him for his ideas even if they seem wrong or non patriotic or not very "politically correct", not wearing the pin, not holding his hand over his heart while reciting the pledge to the flag, wanting to talk to the leaders of countries that US has a problem with- those things sound like a nice change from how things are ran in America today. Now Hillary is definately a smart, calculating and savvy politician. Voting for the war in order not to put her career in jepardy -check. Being the largest recepient of drug companies in congress - check. Running compaign ads based of fear tactics -check. Supporting NAFTA to outsource American jobs -check. Now while those things characterize her as a smart politician they also show that she is very simular to the other politicians , which i think is not a good thing this election As far as experience goes here is an analogy. Lets say u want to put new tile in your bathroom. a contractor comes for an estimate, and tells you that he has tons of experience of working with tile installers, helping them, meeting with people, and shows you his daily organizer from last year to prove it. When you ask if he has ever done a tile job himself he tells you "nah, not really". Well i think Hillary doesn't have any more experience of being the president then my sad contractor friend. Since she was so active as a First Lady it makes me think that she might have used that position to beef up her resume a bit in case she ever has to run for president. Nothing more and nothing less. Obama was a senator for 1 year, she was a senator for 2 years- thats all the experience thats relavant imho.
Everything you have ever wanted is on the other side of fear- George Adair
