		<description>People are often scared by the unfamiliar even when there is nothing to be scared about. The best way of knowing someone is by their actions. However, sometimes this is not possible. The next best thing is to listen to their views, see them, determine their convictions and arrive at an opinion. When it comes to opinions, check out whether they change with time for expediency i.e. to gain favor regardless of their inner convictions. If they are consistent at the risk of being unpopular, they can be trusted. You can check out videos on what Barack Obama is saying at

		<description>I don’t really expect Obama to win. He talks about a new kind of politics but hires the some old political consultants as the rest of the candidates, then boasts about how many millions of dollars he’s raised, as if getting people to cough up cash was the main measure of a potential president’s worth.</description>

		<description>Obama scares me for one reason only.  

       We don't really know a single thing he'll do when he takes office.  His website, and his campaign appearances, say the word "new" a lot," as in "a new kind of politics.  that's nice, but....  What's your policy on Iraq and how to get out of there?  What's your policy on aghanistan or iran?  What to you plan to do for our shrinking middle class.  How do you plan to restore faith in America around the world.  how will you move us from a fossil-fuel based energy system to one that provides power from other sources?

And finally, if you're a new kind of politician, why are you engaged in the old tactics of negative campaigning?</description>

		<description>Yeah. All the presidential candidates are political machine chumps.

Voting is treason, when they'll say whatever they need to say to Get Elected, then turn around and let the lobbyists lead them by the nose.

"None of the Above" for President! Government's a myth, that we go along with.</description>

		<description>I don't have any problem with Barack being young andonly having two years in the Senate.  John Kerry was in the same position when I tried to get him to run by starting a draft committee in 1986.  Barack was editor of the Harvard Law Review, and intellectually, the presidency is several steps down from that.  I want a young, idealistic President who can energize and inpire this country - that matters more to me than his credentials at this point.  I don't find him one bit scary.</description>

		<description>But with Barack, you know where he stands even if you don't agree with him.  This was one attribute of Reagan that even his opponents respected - you know where you stood at all times.

With Hillary, her positions sway with the lobbyist winds and corporate sponsors.  Not to mention all the political baggage from hubby.  Yes, people "love him" but there's still a lot of political baggage that will surface.  There are some Whitewater cases that are still pending... Clintons want you to believe Whitewater was a result of vast right-wing conspiracy but if you look at the facts there was corruption in every corner.  Whitewater makes Libby's obstruction of justice charges seem trivial... but that's not what the dems spin at you.</description>

		<description>Gregory Morris: I am a little-l libertarian, and yes, Barack scares me.  I think he is further to the left than Hillary (though not as far as Edwards appears to be ... though frankly, I can't trust a thing Edwards says: maybe he is really conservative!).  But, I like Barack a lot more.  He's a nicer guy with a better grasp of what it takes to bring people together.

I won't vote for him though.  Or Hillary.</description>
