But, he isn't Hillary and he isn't McCain. They don’t inspire me. I know what they'd do. So, I’m willing to roll the dice with a new guy.
Besides, in the final analysis, there's no training for the job of the most powerful person in the world. The last guy who inspired me, was JFK. He had no training either.

| To me, he just is refreshing.
Something inside me tells me I can trust him.
I think because of his "newness" he will be able to unite, as much as humanly possible, across the isles.
Additionally, I think and hope we will regain some of the respect we may have lost around the world, with Barack as President.
I don't think he will become so swallowed up in the political arena that he looses touch with the rest of us.
I think he will be fair and more then likely, what we see is what we will get.
I think he is a canadate very much worth considering.
oh, and just on a lighter note....man is he photogentic!!!! I had the hardest time picking which picture to post for his thread. There was so many to choose from. |

| Positive words. He seems to be able to unite people - look at the last eleven caucauses. Amazing! Still does not mean he gets my vote - am still rooting for McCain but if there were only TWO people to vote for, come November - Hilary or Barack, I'd change my Republican heart and vote for Barack. |

| He has a way with words so I can take it to mean he will better my life when he means he is going to better someone else's life at my expense, but at least their life will be better. |

| He has inspired many, many ordinary people to give $25 and $50 and maybe $100 through his web site, so that he has accumulated a huge amount of campaign money from his grassroots supporters.
When I first began noticing him in the Illinois Senate, I thought to myself, this man is going to go places! And Michelle will be a fitting helpmate for him if he become president. |

| Obama probably enjoys an occasional Spam sandwich. |

| I'll bet dollars to donuts Obama has had a Spam Sam-ich more than once. On Wonder bread with Mayo. |
