Obama IS the best choice tri_blog May 3 2008, 17:52:12 UTC
Senator Obama is a poised, elegant speaker about whom I know next to nothing except that he's a riveting orator. Senator Clinton talks out of both sides of her mouth, but her actions show that she puts corporate interests, like big pharma, health insurance companies and oil, way ahead of the public interest. But what if Senator Obama is all talk? What will he actually DO once he has the power? We don't know - his record is a blank.

Hi! Thanks for your message. This quote is absolutely untrue. Obama was in the Illinois state legislature for 8 years before joining the U.S. Senate, and he has longer ELECTED experience than Clinton.

I don't think you can count being MARRIED to a guy as EXPERIENCE in doing his job. Otherwise I'd be seeing the wife of my plastic surgeon for treatments. :p

I'm a strong Obama supporter, active in my local chapter, worked for Obama in Philadelphia during the election, and am very active on obama_2008.

Please join us there and ask your questions about him. People will enlighten you.

Go to his website and look at his 64-page Blueprint for Change with his specific plans for the country. Under each issue, he lists his speeches and additional PDF documents that detail his plans. For example, his 15-page health care plan is listed.

Here are some article's about Obama's legislative accomplishments:

I disagree with "protest" votes for people not in the race, like Kucinich. Sure, you may feel better, but what do you actually accomplish? You disenfranchise yourself.

Plus Obama truly has the best character, policies, creative mind, personality, goals, etc.... we need for the future. It's extremely vital that you take a closer look at him and, hopefully, agree with me . :p
