I'm on the fence at this time but I am leaning towards Obama.

I am a conservative, not a Republican though.  I am a liberal, not a Democrat though.  

I want to know who you are!!!

Quoting Anonymous:

I knew you were smarter than the "I'm voting for whoever isn't Obama" crowd. For some reason I had labeled you a conservative when you're really libertarian. I have a little more respect now.

But still anonymous. Lol


Quoting Elyce225:

Haha, not at all.  I would never say  "I will vote only to get this person out".  It's such a waste.  I mean, I am a huge Ron Paul supporter and if he got the nomination I would vote for him, but we all know that is not going to happen.

I would rather not have Romney in office, he scares the shit out of me.  He agrees with Obamacare so it's not like voting him in would make that go away.  He basically is Obama, the homophone version.  I don't care about gay people (in a good way, I don't give a shit what they do) so I would rather have Obama in who may help them vs. Romney, who will do exactly what Obama is doing, but won't help them.  

I rambled on.

Love, 

Non anonymous Elyce.


Quoting Anonymous:

Oh shit for real!? I would've thought you'd die before choosing Obama. I support your current position ;)

Quoting Elyce225:

So far I will be voting for Obama.  I don't think either are what we need right now but I can not vote a zealot into office.  If Romney does a turn around and comes to the table with something I absolutely agree with then it will be him.

I agree with everything you wrote. I say something similar at work and always get ripped to shreds. Nice to know others think the same way I do.

Quoting SDarvasi:

I'm Canadian, but I watch your policital race closely...because who you have as President affects us too....and personally, if I was an American, I would vote Obama. Sure, he has his faults. What President doesn't? But out of all the Presidents recently (besides Clinton) he seems the most down to Earth, normal, HUMAN, compassionate and understanding. He's smart, his family is very loving, and I think he has more to offer than what America has allowed him to share. He still has rules to follow, laws to abide, and in order to pass something, he's gotta get it approved by many people before it even becomes viable.

The job of a President isn't as easy as everyone thinks. Someone will ALWAYS be unhappy. In my eyes, he's been trying to fix the things that were broken to make America a place where everyone can live happily and somewhat equally.

The press and media have done horrible things to his image, and those who are "negatively" affected by his choices are going to hate him. But most hate him out of popular opinion and fear of the unknown.

IMO.

I really don't like either one, but at least Obama doesn't hate gays, women and poor people. Nor does he want theocracy to influence government...

Haha!  I know, maybe the world will end before the elections and I won't have to do it ;)

Seriously though, I don't base my opinions on the D or the R.  I think that is so silly and whats wrong with out country.  At this point Obama is the better man for the job *me thinks*.

Quoting briansmommy2010:

LOL!! I agree with you. I love Elyce, but I never expected to see her choosing Obama!

Ehhh we have out fill or stiff white guys with no humor, but we also have a bonus of crazy white people that think they're brilliant but in reality scare the shit out of the majority.


Quoting SDarvasi:

I don't think its a matter of being better informed. Just maybe we look at it from an unbiased point of view since we're not the ones being directly affected by any of it. We can see the whole picture, as opposed to bits and pieces. Plus...Obama seems like the kind of Politician we would really appreciate. We usually have the stiff, old white guys who have fake smiles and ridiculous policies and law passings. Sure we have a lot of great things, but everytime we get a new leader, it changes and we lose out on a lot of essentials. We will trade you three politicians for your Obama. lol.


Quoting KristeenieB:

I find it sad that more people from outside of the US are better informed on US politics that many US citizens.

But people don't dislike Romey BECAUSE he's a Christian. They dislike him because of his attempts to go against one of the basic principles of our country-separation of Church and State.

Quoting sheepinarowboat:

Just pointing out an inconsistency.  If you don't like a christian in leadership, then you wouldn't want Obama either.

Quoting briansmommy2010:

What does that have to do with what witty said? Being a Christian doesn't mean you have to incorporate your religion into politics. In fact, it's unconstitutional to do so.

Quoting sheepinarowboat:

Obama professes to be a christian.  

Quoting wittyscreenname:

Obama.

Because I believe the Church has no reason to be in the State, I like my rights as a woman, and I support Obamacare.
