I'm not American, I'm just curious on the views of people. The issue is much talked about. So if you were to vote, who would you choose?

Based from observation, in terms of popularity it is Obama that is clearly the one that seems have the edge over the Maccain. I just don't know when election time comes if the it will remain like that. I see that Obama represents a new outlook for US in case he wins this race. I am seeing a much more liberal America than where it is right now where it is ruled by the elite. With Obama in the scene I guess its his time to show that America is indeed a changed country where they are allowing changes that before was not acceptable.

Yes, Obama represents a different outlook. But, if you understand what this country was founded on, you would realize that it's not the ideology he represents. He'sa greta guy, smart and well spoken and has done some good work in chicago, but he is just very out of touch with a lot of our princibles.

I am not American either, but, hey, like they have all said, we are affected by American politics, especially at the presidential level. Just if I were to vote, or if I were American, I would go for Obama. I think he makes more sense than McCain. Obama is a team player, and McCain is an "I" person; he is more obsessed by his past achievements, if we may call his detention in Vietnam an achievement. He is self-glorified about that.

wow, you are so wrong on something, he is not self glorified about it, in fact, he hasn't talked much about it at all untill recently and then he gives credit and rspect to those who were captured with him. He speaks of it in terms of how it shaped is love for this country. This is something that is becomming rare in this country these days, ther is a certian humility in it. The world is getting a very distorted view of him and though I'm not sure I'm voting for him yet, it bothers me to see that.

I'm for Obama all the way. He has so many views that are just better for the US than McCaine. McCaine double talks and contradicts himself so often he makes the Batman villan Twoface look like an saint. The person he's chosen for a vice president is just as back stabbing as he is. She cares nothing for the people unless she needs the vote. If we had both of them in office the States would become so much more stupid than we are now. I have no problem with saying that we, as a people are blind as sheep and as stupid as sheep also. If we have McCaine in office, America will only continue it's downward spiral into failure.

I am American and I will go for McCaine not because of color but because I have always went the republican way. I have always been a republican and just believe in what they stand for. I also like his VP pick. I like her because she is a true real person dealing with all the issues that us Americans face such as a baby with special needs and a daughter that is pregnant at 17.

Hello! I am not an American.But I think it would be better for the Americans to go with McCain because he is an American and he will work for his own country.But in case of Obama I must say he is second class citizen of America and he will have weakness for the black people.So if I am to choose a President for America I must go with McCain.Thanx.

I hear that Bill Cosby is the new write in candidate. Who knows, maybe there will be an upset.

actualy McCain has pulled ahead now, he had a 10 point bump in the polls. As for me, I'm maybe voting for McCain, still not sure, I may vote for Ron Paul or Chuck Baldwin, I haven't completely yet. I do know that I'm NOT voting for Obama, he does not represent at all what my country is about or the princibles it was founded on. He's a smart guy, well spoken and motivational, but his ideology is very much out of tune with this country's basic constitutional ideology.
