So called "independants" that want to be "convinced" really arent going to be "convinced" at this stage of the game. You arent going to be convinced Geeker. You finally realize that Obama being President is inevitable thats all.

So what do i think he will do that is good for America? Okay:

1. He will be a good representative to the international community:

Obama is a thoughtful and eloquent speaker and he carries himself like a president should. The current president's foreign policy has been a failure and its to a point where America is losing its place in the world. i think Obama can help get us there. I think he wants to rebuild some fractured relationships. I think he wants to see if we can negotiate a peace with some of our enemies. This John Wayne style of foreign policy doesnt work. I think Obama's way will be good for us.

2. Tax Policy that helps the middle class:

Tax breaks to the people who need it. Build America up from the middle instead of using this Trickle down, supply side theory that has proven to be an utter failure. If anyone wants to debate this we can any day. This will be good for us all, even the rich that are being taxed more.

3. End this war in Iraq:

It was a mistake in 2003 and it is still is. One of the reasons that we are in this economic mess is because of the financial strain of the war (another discussion). Too many have died and its time to get our soldiers OUT. This will be good for all of us.

Do you want more?

Thanks!

1. OK I can see that - he does have a good presence about him.

2. How much do we get? I keep hearing that 40% of the people don't pay taxes and they will get checks - if this is true it really pi$$es me off...where the hell is this money coming from? I guess if he gives it to the people that pay no taxes some if it comes from me!

3. He says he will withdraw from Iraq but will send them to Afghanistan. Like it or not I don't think you can just withdraw from Iraq and not make a total mess in the region....or maybe you can just say fucl< it and walk away.
