I find this interesting
Out of these two who do you think has the upper hand?It seems obama and hillary are newcomers yet hillary basically made alot of dicisions when bill clinton ran.
not to mention she is like the opposite of bush.
who will you vote from these two if your vote will decide who will be the president?
***answer this even if you are from any other country as I'm really interested to know***

I am all for Obama and all against Clinton. I don't like Hillary Clinton at all. I really believe that Obama is the real thing as far as people go. I have admired him for years. He seems pretty honest and quite a family man to me.

I am supporting Clinton. Many people say " I cant stand her" or "she scares me" or "she is evil" but I dont feel any of these things. I have done my homework and the research to fully understand what she supports. I have worked on her campaign and felt first hand how she really cares for the American people. She is a very strong woman and maybe that "scares people". She is very decisive...and maybe that "scares people". She stands up for what she believes..maybe that makes people annoyed by her. To me these qualities are what we need in a president. Someone who is willing to fight for what they believe, stand up for the people who are affected by it, and make a decision. She is very transparent and it is too bad that people dont really evaluate her beliefs, her issues, and her desire to make this country a better place.

This is a very, very tough call.
Obama has a huge groudswelling of support and is doing a great job of bringing the young people out to vote and support him with his message of change. He shows an awful lot of potential, however he is essentially running on a speech he gave several years ago.
He has never actually done anything in Congress, or sponsered any bills. He doesn't know the political machine, nor I suspect does he know how to manipulate to affect any real lasting change. I think down the road, he would make a great president, but I do not think he is ready yet.
It's a huge responsibility if he were to win. Being the first Black American president. If he doesn't do a phenomenal job, he could actually set his race back quite a ways.
On to Hilary.
Love her or hate her, she has experience. She knows how the political system works. When her husband was President she did a accomplish a lot, and tried to get universal healthcare passed. She failed, but as president I've no doubt she would do what she sets out to do, and make some changes.
She also has her husband's experience to draw from. He is familar with the issues, and the job. He can offer some very insightful advice and knowlege on all issues, plus he still has political juice.
Personally, I think Hilary would do a much better job.

I'm not too crazy about either one. When it comes to voting for McCain or whomever wins the "battle royale" for the Democrats, I'll probably just flip a coin.
To paraphrase the late Richard Jeni, choosing between Obama and Clinton is like choosing between hemorrhoid cream and suppositories.

I prefer Obama to Clinton because for all her "experience" we are finding out she had no security clearance back then and basically was just the First Lady. She has as much Presidential experience as Laura Bush one could argue.
It also sounds like she has lied a "wee bit" on her resume as today her sniper fire story has turned out to be a total lie and Ireland is turning out to be a falshood as well as they are getting people who were actually there refuting her comments.
I would say Obama has the upper hand as he leads by about 165 pledged delegates and 700,000 votes which is a almost mathematically impossible for Sen. Clinton to catch up now.
