Barack Obama's speech on video

[reflection]

[Garooch]

One heckofa speech.

[Ron Kruger]

Obama speaks for me better than I can for myself. He even gives a cynical, old fart like me some hope for the future of this nation.

[Garooch]

I hope he'll be half as good a president as he is a an orator.

[William]

You want more taxes and higher gas prices - bully for you

[reflection]

How long has it been since a politician got up and talked to us? No spin, no hype, no talking points, just talked honestly? What would this country look like with more of it? I'm going to vote for him just to find out.

[William]

Everyone connected to him is a crook. McCain doesn't understand classic economics, but isn't a radical and won't raise taxes. Obama promises more taxes - you decide.

[Garooch]

So who would you like to see as president, and why them. (by the way, I disagree with your "crook" and "radical" characterizations).

[okhela]

I prefer Nader but will vote for Obama.

[LIGuy]

Correct McCain won't raise taxes he also won't take away the $17billion in tax breaks given to the major ol companies.
One of the reasons our economy is in the crapper is because for the first time in history taxes weren't raised to pay for a war.
