Obama is the most liberal candidate to ever be nominated to run for president.
i would say that FDR was a little more liberal back in the hey-day
I decided i can’t really talk about ignorance because imma tell everyone how i vote.
First off, I rarely vote on principles or on sides of current issues. The problem with voting for president is that all he really does in his position is represent the country and run the army. “Oh he influences policy making”…bull*edited*. Yea he can veto but all the real policy making is in Congress. You want Change…. research your Senators and Representatives and vote accordingly. If you want change, don’t expect the president to do it.
When i vote, I actually mainly vote on the character of the person running. People who have terrible character and say everything you want to hear are not people I want in office. People who have good character and may not want exactly everything i want is a person that would be great in office. it gets rid of all the *edited*ing corruption and the old politicians who think we are still in a cold war.
I honestly wanted to vote for Rudy Giuliani. Say what you like about how shady he is or whatever, but as a person when he said he will do something he does it. Not only that but he refuses to take *edited* from anyone. He would have been a good guy to have in office and i nearly did a write in for him.
In actuality i ended up voting for Obama after 4 days of internal debate. It actually had nothing to do with Obama actually, just that his running mate was Joe Biden. This is gonna be the kicker for all you people out there. I watched the VP debates vs. Palin and while i thought she did really well in the debates, that debate actually made me want to vote Biden. I felt that in the end he was the better choice as i felt he not only could fulfill what he wanted to accomplish but also was pretty straight forward with what he wanted to do.
guess im just ignorant. woohooo!
