Go to http://www.barackobama.org and on the left side of the top links on his home page, click on LEARN, then look down the menu that comes into view and click on KNOW the FACTS. You will find the latest controversial comments and both sides of the issue so you can analyze it more efficiently.

Below is my "Why I Support Barack Obama" which explains some of the reasons I know Senator Barack Obama will make a good President of the United States of America.

Senator Barack Obama is able to see the best from both sides of issues and explain the pros and cons to us. He is gifted in analysis and able to clearly define the nature of the problem as well as options for resolution. His candor, his self-control and grace under pressure, his ability to listen, his quiet but commanding presence that is respected by all of the other presidential candidates--these are a few of his character qualities that indicate he is the "man of the hour" for our next President of the United States of America.

We will be enduring tough times as a nation and the situation requires a President with considerable diplomatic experience in his manner of speech with people from all walks of life as well as a practical understanding of the daily struggles and joys in America at all economic levels.

I have questions, like the effect of his capital gains' tax plan that was discussed on George Stephanopolous' "Round Table" on 4-20-08 but I am hoping that Senator Obama is open to tweaking any of his plans if additional facts or perspectives are laid on the table. He seems to be a man who would be open to changing his view in the face of evidence. Situations turn upside down overnight in the world now, so we need a president who can gather all of the facts, assess them wisely, then reassess them later and make modifications if a Plan B, C or D becomes necessary.

I respect Senator Obama's ability to address things directly, thoughtfully and tactfully with no arrogance, no drama, no ego, no haughtiness, no ignorance, no lying and with no dysfunctional pride nor conceitedness that is blind to the truth. He rises above everyone in heated discussions which is evidence of superb training and discipline in his life. He is a peacemaker in his own right...able to get everyone to focus on the bottom line and build from there. He is going to make a good president who will go the extra mile to protect us, to help us in rescue and recovery. He will have to make choices between the "lesser of two evils" in many situations...anyone who wants to understand that bigger picture should research the statistics on http://www.economyincrisis.org

Remember...he will not be able to tell us everything about what is happening. National security and our very lives will be at stake. Encourage him to stand strong against wrong compromises and provide the facts quickly to him--he will be pressured unlike any other president in history.

How about talking about facts? No experience (still a freshman senator), Has dealings with recent convicted slum lords (Tony Resco), finds being in the presence of terrorists' a "friendly" thing (Bill Ayers), "I will raise taxes" (2008), "I won't drill for oil" (last week), was part of a Black Nationalist church (Trinity Lutheran Church), Father a Muslim, middle name Hussein, "The Surge will not do anything" (2008), Voted more liberal on issues in the Senate than any other Senator (mainsteam media).
See where this is going? You're description of Obama sounded like a page out of a romance novel about a man getting ready to put it to someone.....Well guess what? He's getting ready to put it to mighty, beautiful, and patriotic U.S.A.

I couldn't help but notice your post, but I am to be polite...google SPP Lou Dobbs, or youtube. I am a free thinker & I don't like either choice, we are headed for disaster. Don't you think that it is odd the choices we have? Obama doesn't say anything, & his answer to the immigration issue is for you to learn Spanish! I am outraged.
WE are headed for one world government, our liberties are being taken away, the dollar is collapsing, the national ID is on your doorstep & this war is costing trillions that your kids & grand kids will be paying for. You probably haven't researched the hazards of Fluoride, yet, either! Notice how many pharmaceutical ads are on the TV? Why? because they want you on drugs, not for your health, but for profit. Have you studied GMO foods? High fructose corn syrup? Hazards of Aspartame? Follow the money trail... Do some research. Dr. Ron Paul cured my apathy. The TRUTH will set you free...

Try reading the book written by Dr.Ron Paul, REVOLUTION, the Manifesto. Dr. Paul, congressman from Texas cured my apathy, hopefully, he will cure yours, too...we are being led like the sheep. We have been LIED to. Time to wake up, trash the TV, do some research! The 2 party system is a farce.
