So called "independants" that want to be "convinced" really arent going to be "convinced" at this stage of the game. You arent going to be convinced Geeker. You finally realize that Obama being President is inevitable thats all.

So what do i think he will do that is good for America? Okay:

1. He will be a good representative to the international community:

Obama is a thoughtful and eloquent speaker and he carries himself like a president should. The current president's foreign policy has been a failure and its to a point where America is losing its place in the world. i think Obama can help get us there. I think he wants to rebuild some fractured relationships. I think he wants to see if we can negotiate a peace with some of our enemies. This John Wayne style of foreign policy doesnt work. I think Obama's way will be good for us.

2. Tax Policy that helps the middle class:

Tax breaks to the people who need it. Build America up from the middle instead of using this Trickle down, supply side theory that has proven to be an utter failure. If anyone wants to debate this we can any day. This will be good for us all, even the rich that are being taxed more.

3. End this war in Iraq:

It was a mistake in 2003 and it is still is. One of the reasons that we are in this economic mess is because of the financial strain of the war (another discussion). Too many have died and its time to get our soldiers OUT. This will be good for all of us.



Do you want more?

1. I'm stunned that you actually believe this. Negotiate with our enemies?
2. I'm sure all the people that benefited from the growth in our ecomomy the last 25 years, you know the people that made money in their retirement accounts on the growth of the stockmarket, would beg to differ. You surely forgot the wonderful economy that Mr Carter left us with with. You also seem to ignore our place in the worlds ecomony and the growth that our ecnomy has spurred worledwide. Funny how when our economy tanks, everybody else does too. Yet when other economic powers like Japan's economy tanked the rest of the world kept churning along. Everyone is in a anic right now but we are still way better off than we are during the Carter administration9not that old jimmy should take all the blame)
3. It is really not that simple.
