Obama or McCain

I prefer to give a vote for Barack Obama than John McCain. I see McCain will continue the policy that is used by Bush. Policies that treathen peace in the world and economic disadvantage in the United States.

Neither. I voted for Ron Paul. He was the only one with common sense.

I voted for Obama and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I didn't vote for him because I "wanted to see an African-American President" although I'm glad it's happened. I know full well those words are going to be taken out of context here, I'll be accused of "lying" when I said his race wasn't the reason I voted for him simply because I also said I'm glad we've elected someone other than a white male after more than 200 years. For the record, I'll also be glad if or when we finally elect a female, one from the Jewish or other religion besides Protestant and the one Catholic, an Hispanic or a gay person President. That does not mean I'll vote for anyone from any of those groups just because they've never been elected before but I also won't vote against them for that reason. I can't speak for others who voted for Obama but I'm sure there were many different reasons for different people. It couldn't be that the majority voted for him because of his race because the African-American population isn't nearly big enough. I know a lot of people wanted a change; some make fun of that idea but after the rough eight years we'd had it certainly understandable. Many here mentioned McCain's experience during the campaign, as you did but I don't think it's all about experience, it's about fresh ideas and the willingness to try something different. Annie

Neither, liked Ron Paul, voted for chuck baldwin when Paul didn't get the nomination. I don't identify whith either the democratic or republican parties, they are pretty much taking the country the same direction, they are both a waste of time.

I didn't make up my mind until just before the election. My first choice was to vote for Obama. I liked McCain but was not too keen on his choice of Vice-President. Obama went down in my estimation with his choice of VP Joe Biden. I dislike that man but yet was still thinking of voting for Obama but as the campaign went on Obama in my opinion went from bad to worse. I voted for McCain and now he is in office Obama almost on a daily basis proves to me that I made the right decision. If Obama makes it through his first four years without being impeached I doubt that he will be elected for a second term.

I voted for McCain just plain and simple because I don't like Obamas politics and the things that he stands for.
