This is the first time I'll have the opportunity to vote and I'm really set on who I want as president and why.

I was curious, what issue(s) are most important to you guys when deciding who to vote for?

I vote for the one that inspires & instills hope.

Most important issue: World Peace.

In times like these we have to have faith that who ever wins does the best job and makes the best decisions. I wont say right because like a human Obama and McCain will never make the right decision; they both will flip flop, the both will be advised as to what needs to be done but one things for sure, we need changes. Change is better than the same old crap the Bush administration has given us and unless McCain makes a drastic turn around he will not win this election. I'm African American and I'm not a big Obama fan but I am leaning more towards him solely because he has taken his far leftism and admitted that he needs to be stronger on foreign policies. Let's stop bashing and start praying if that’s what you do; no matter who is president he will have a trillion dollar deficit, relations to re-build for national security reasons and figure out how to handle Afghanistan and Iraq. God bless America and our new president!!

I agree.

AMEN & AMEN

As long as special interest groups have their hand in the White House, we are all going to get the shaft.
And as long as people care more about who is going to win American Idol than they do who will win the White House, we are screwed.
And as long as people are wasting energy on keeping up with the tabloids and other "fluff" news, they wont even be capable of governing themselves.

I have to stop now before i start ranting about self reliance again!
