    I liike obama.

    I did a 5 page autobiography on him. I think he's really interesting. How does he have 3 islamic names??? Its all one name..I thought that was kinda dumb. And so what he has that picture of the cuban guy in the houston office, I've seen that picture in a ton of places...that doesnt make it bad. They manipulated everything, if you focus on oneperson its easy to make them look bad.

    The part that bugs me though, is that he doesn't put his hand over his heart for the nat'anthem

    3 names, a given name, a middle name, and surname, if I'm James William O'Connor, I have 3 Irish names, as opposed to Anthony Patrick Martinelli, where I would have 1 Irish name an 2 Italian ones.

    Che Guevera is not Cuban, he is Argentinian, and he is a marxist radical, he is a communist symbol, and can't be used in any different context.

    The bottom line is Obama is a radically socialist Anti-American who isn't fit to wipe John McCain's ass.

    And John McCain isn't that great.

    i don't like any of the canidates but i would probably rather have obama over mcain. i don't really know what i think about everything yet. My parents are republicans but i don't know if i agree with everything that most republicans believe but i do agree with some. idk i don't think i know enough about all that stuff to decide yet. But i do find it all very interesting.

    And John McCain isn't that great.

    He was named after his father first place, who has the same exact first,middle and last name. So his name wasn't picked just because its Islamic.

    And okay, how often does he visit that office in Houston?? He probably doesn’t even know that it exists. And I'm not saying you’re implying this, but it doesn’t make him a communist or anything

    I don't ever want to see a democrat in the white house unless the republican (or libertarian candidate for that matter) is Satan himself. Just my 2 cents.

    No, his social policy and voting record make him a communist.

    The fact that he is anti-American is just icing.

    i don't understand what your asking...why do i like obama better?
    mainly because, i really don't like mcain. im not a big fan of either though.

    Only on one axis! We are the same on social freedom (anti racism and stuff). I'm just anti welfare and anti environmentalism. I feel a million times more sorry for the child who has to starve because his dad can't bring home any money due to greenpeace hippies, rather than a whale dying.

    It said I was closest to Jose Zapatero, prime minister of Spain. A search on Wikipedia said, "Actions of his first government have included withdrawing Spanish troops from Iraq, a controversial negotiation with the armed separatist group ETA, the creation of Spanish Courts to deal with Violence against Women, legalizing same-sex marriages and a program of amnesty for illegal immigrants."

    I am strongly against all of those except for the courts against violence thing.

    yeah, i do, but my parents were born and raised in the US (they moved to hk when i was 6 because my dads boss transferred him to international affairs) and we're still US citizens.

    anywho, i ended up next to Jose Zapatero...i've never heard of him haha
