What do you dislike about him?

You have already said that "niggers" grind your gears.

I think McCain is way too old. I also think Obama is way too young. However, I am a yellow dog republican. It is interesting to note how many people voted for Obama. This site must be very liberal, xD.

The internet/media tends to be more left-winged in general. The only exception to this is Fox News.

Here in Canada, Ontario to be more generalistic, the majority of the media is baising for Obama, more or less for the fact that he may be "The First Black President". I'm not sure if the Harper government is going to like him though. Harper <3 Bush. Where am I going with this...?

I wouldn't care if we had a black president. But, Obama is going around like he runs the place.

And his fucking advertisements: I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message.
WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS?!

I haven't really looked into the candidates much, largely due to not being old enough to vote, but what I've seen from McCain advertisments, his policy on oil (drill the crap out of america so we import less) is DOING IT WRONG.

It doesn't fucking matter where we get oil; we're running out. What does McCain do when we run flat out of the crap, and the happy American Republican oil barons go out of buisness?

While I don't know Obama's stance on the oil problem, a more proactive solution would to be to reduce dependancy on oil et al, regardless of source.

Retroedit @ Darkling: McCain does the same thing in his ads, FYI.

Sad thing is, I've never SEEN a McCain ad.

You will soon once he and the republican party release a "Obama celebrity" video or something like that. It was talked about in like one of the yahoo news stories that i read

.. Pretty much the first black president, a potential with a 60% chance of becoming the most powerful man in the world. Yes, believe it or not, he can say pretty much whatever the hell he wants and its justified. He has every right to be elitist or arrogant.

Also, I've never seen an ad for any of the candidates. Screw NYC .

Mccain is like britney spears, according to Obama =P

This is a joke, right? Every single ad released by any campaign that I've ever seen has "I'm [candidate] and I approve this message" at the end. I seriously hope you're joking, lol.

Besides, I don't trust McCain anymore. In the 2000 campaign, he would always take the high road like Obama is now, and he lost because a massive smear campaign was launched against him. He knows smear campaigns are bullshit, but does he care anymore? Nope. That tells me that he's willing to abandon his convictions to win the Presidency.

Its not a joke. I've never even seen an ad for McCain. But, I know this. Some senator or whatever from New York is saying it too, and its driving me insane. Obama deserves to lose.

(Then again, I'm not saying McCain would be my choice, but hes better then Obama in my opinion, and not because hes white.)

I like the Obama ad that begins "Barak Obama passed a law."

OMG A SENATOR PASSED A LAW WTF HE'S GOD VOTE 4 HIM!!!

But in reality, Obama's a fraud who knows very little knowledge of how the economy works.

Obama knows exactly who the economy works.

Sorry, but if you're going to attack someone's intelligence with no source or reason, then you should at least check your grammar.

People who are anti-obama aren't giving us much to work with, their responses are all "OMG I HATE OBAMA"...

Personally, I like Obama because of his liberal standpoint on issues. I am completely for gay rights and pro-choice. My personal opinion is that there are bigger problems than gay marriage and abortion, so why not just allow that? Both parties can agree that there are bigger problems whether or not they agree on what the problems are.

I apologize for my typo. It's obviously a sign of my stupidity. And since when has anyone ever sighted anything on SEN?

For a quick run-down on Obama as a fraud: He constantly talks about "a new kind of politics", and "hope", "change", and believing in him. Apparently his new kind of politics started with his presidential run. He's missed a third of all his Senate votes, and got that Senate seat by backstabbing his first political ally.

For a quick run-down on Obama the economic moron: Spending would go way up, and his tax system is really just a socialist redistribution of wealth scheme.

Compared to bush: the war, private contracts of wasting resources, gas prices tripling since Clinton? McCain is guilty by association. He would only make things worse.
Anything different is better than what we have now. McCain is not different. Just another republican of the same nature.

I live in Arizona. McCain was a senator for Arizona. He did crap for Arizona. I don't see that improving with a bigger field.


Candidates tend to only advertise in swing states. States that have a track record of voting Republican or Democrat generally aren't bothered with by the other candidates. (Reinforced by our winner-take-all electoral system, save for a few states)

Man how I hate our damn party system. George Washington was absolutely right. Too many people ignorant of the issues blindly voting with their party. *sigh*

McCain not doing anything for Arizona might be because he is a US Senator, not a state Senator.

@IP: The war isn't an economic policy, I don't know what the contracts for waste are, and gas prices aren't really his fault. It's more the problem of not drilling for our own oil. Regardless, that doesn't change the fact that Obama doesn't know anything about the economy.

What the heck are you talking about? We are not even close to running out of oil, and all we are doing getting it from Arabia is giving our money to them, thus hurting our own economy, there is plenty of oil, and the only reason we haven't gone into it is environmentalists and liberals getting in the way. We should've been drilling our own oil years ago.. I don't like McCain, but I don't like Obama even more, so I think I'll go with the lesser of two evils.
