Re: OBAMA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bucco, it's not complicated. It's a simple declarative sentence. I AM BACKING OBAMA BECAUSE I LIKE HIS STANDS ON THE ISSUES! That said, I am not going to literally repeat all of his stands on the issues. Here are two links below:

http://www.ontheissues.org/senate/Barack_Obama.htm

I agree with his positions. This is why I'm voting for him. I really can't make it any clearer than that. This is not just voting for change, this is voting for a man I believe in. I think he will be a stellar President of the United States.

Fair enough...I respect that and that is what an election is. Allow me to explain my frustration however if you will without getting personal, CERTAINLY not about you and trying not to with Sen Obama.

I hear supporters of Sen Obama who say they think he is great....but they dont know why. I support many of the WORDS of both candidates, but I put more stock in actions. When Sen Obama first burst on the scene, I started to check on this guy who I had never heard of....listened to his speeches which are terrific. I still see absolutely no substance whatsoever in Sen Obama, although I will admit that if he could translate his beautiful words into actions I would be impressed,...HOWEVER the FACTS do not substantiate that happening.

Example...in the recent Georgia situation, he sends his top aide,Susan Rice on CNN to say that perhaps Sen McCain has made the situation worse by his response (which was not much different than Sen Obama and along the lines of what this country wants..support our allies), and then will give a speech saying we should not allow politics to enter into situations like this. His words are always different from what he does (or as is the norm someone on his campaign does for him).

We will see in November......I am surely not a supporter of Sen McCain, but will vote for him. Should Sen Obama win and he should, I will surely support him as my President but will fight with all my might to prevent the almost certain movement to socialism.
