I listened to Michael Moore (critical of everything in America) speak the other day and he made the statement that this country needed a woman or blackman as president. He said it has been ruled by white men with nothing but bad results. Is this not the most racist statement you have ever heard. It is equivalent to saying that all blacks are criminals because they have such a high crime rate. If you vote for Obama just because he is black you are a racist.

Obama gives good speeches or at least the first couple of times you hear him. The problem with someone who's only talent is good speech is eventually we will bore with him. There should be some substance in his speeches. So far all I have seen is pep rallies.

He will not pull the troops out of Iraq as so many of you believe he should. The reason is the majority of congress and the American people don't want it to happen until goals have been met.

Do you agree with his economic views? What are they?

Please tell me a reason why anyone would want to vote for Obama.
