Lefty Metalhead Endorses Barack Obama for President in 2008!



As many of have probably heard, Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) has indicated that he is thinking about a White House bid in 2008. This news comes as somewhat of a surprise due to the senator vehemently denying consideration just a few months ago. Obama now gives many Democrats like me hope for 2008. This nation needs a strong leader who can UNITE its people, not DIVIDE us like George W. Bush has done. Obama, in his book The Audacity of Hope, suggests that we need a new kind of politics, one that promotes unity to solve our nation's most critical problems. Not only must we fight corporate special interests, but we must also not tax ourselves to death. We should employ diplomacy with persuasion along with a strong military for our most serious threats. Our government must THINK before it acts. This is what Obama stands for, and that alone warrants my support for him.

I came across Obama's eloquent ideas during his 2004 senatorial campaign, in which I was a volunteer. In person, Obama is just as well-spoken, intelligent, and well-mannered as he appears on camera, perhaps even more. He embodies everything our nation's leader should be. I urge everyone who loves this country to support Obama. If you happen to have concerns regarding his experience, rest assured that nobody arrives to the presidency "prepared". We have seen this is true with the current president, who never quite looked prepared to handle our domestic concerns. For those of you who are skeptical about both parties, I don't blame you. However, it is your job as a citizen to change the current political landscape, and refusing to participate only makes your cause look hypocritical. Let us save this nation from governing ineptitude.

Barack Obama, you have my vote. Now please run!

So far, I like this guy a lot. He seems like the real deal. Unfortunately, I think that if he ran in 08, he'd be savaged as being far two green and lacking in exectutive experience. I'd prefer that he start off as a Veep or Secretary of State.

make that "too green"

That's a good point. However, all the talk of being "green" will collapse if he proves he has good ideas and plans.

cj endorses obama as well. however, i dont think the rest of the country will vote for him. its pretty much older people who vote. many of them will not vote for him cause hes not a good ole boy. i can forsee see him making a bigger run in 2012. so, he should just go along as a vp canidate for the upcoming election in 2008, get a little more experiance under his belt, and make his run in 2012. conutless presidents of the past have taken this path and won. to quote the emperor "i have forseen it"

Hey, what's all this "green" bashing ...

lol

anyway, there is no way in fucking hell this guy can win in America ... and here is why ... look at his name.

the average SUV driving, VOTING, american is going to see that name and think of Osama bin Laden, and think "those names sound too much alike" ... if the guys name was Steve Jones, he would be a serious candidate.

i don't really know the guy's view, but if you guys like him i'm sure he's a progressive dude. but he's a terrorist in this White Bred (i mean Bread) fascist shithole.

I like just hearing him do interviews. It's so refreshing to see a candidate for important office that can actually answer a question, unlike our current....
