I am voting for Obama. I know where he stands on issues. I agree with him. I know where McCain stands on issues and I disagree with his view. I respect McCain, but feel he is not fit to be president. I am disappointed in the many people on this site, not because they are voting one way or another, but because they are proud to disrespect a presidential candidate. saying they are scared of his name, race, ect. Obama is an intelligent well rounded person. Not some muslim terrorist looking to steal your guns and turn the U.S. socialist. I know I'm outnumbered here but my point is not to sway voters...it is to change attitudes. Words are like arrows once they leave the strings you can't get them back.
As a teacher, I'd have thought you'd not be so naive, and you'd have researched a little. Obama IS a huge RED FLAG and his associations with people like Ayers and Wright tend to make me believe he IS worse than many of us are assuming. Combine that with his VOTING RECORD, which tells a much different story than all of his empty promises, I have a hard time understanding why any working person who LOVES AMERICA would ever consider voting for him. As a teacher, I'm sure the NEA has told you who you SHOULD vote for and like many teachers I know, you probably listened, rather than looking at the candidate and the issues at hand. Quite sad really that 99% of the voters are ignorant to what they are really voting for.
