THE DEFICIT THE WAY, MIDDLE CLASS IS NON EXISTANT...WE HAVE NO CREDIBILITY IN THE WORLD. IF YOU WANT MORE OF THE SAME ELITIST CRAP VOTE FOR MCCAIN HES BUSH'S PUPPETT!!! IF YOU WANT TO HAVE PRIDE IN AMERICA VOTE DEMOCRATIC!!!!!!!!!!!
Vice-Presidential Candidate
My choice is Sebelius from Kansas...an early supporter of Obama and competent. This from an old Republican (now a democrat) who feels that a woman would add an important balance to any party's ticket.
barack will choose the right one
If he wants someone with all the right back ground he should choose Joe Biden, he has all the experience they need.
His only chance
He should go with Hillary as without her he will lose.

I'm sorry but I do not agree. I was an avid Clinton supporter and am disappointed she couldn't go all the way, but there is nothing in this world that would sway me to vote for John McCain. I'm curious how you would vote for that man when he is nothing but a carbon copy of the Bush administration and has as much knowledge of the economy as a piece of wood.
I will happily support Obama, I hope he picks Sebelius (If he doesn't choose Hillary), I lived at Fort Riley in Kansas for 4 years and she did an excellent job for that State and was VERY supportive of the troops.

He should go with Hillary as without her he will lose.
If he picks anyone else I'm going for McCain. Most people in the middle or undecided will sway towards McCain without Hillary cause Obama has no substance. He is too young and picks lousy friends.
If he does that whats he going to do when he appoints his staff......
A platform of change is a platform of empty promises. Nobody can change where we are headed they can just nudge it a little.
Shold be Hillary
He should choose Hillary Clinton. The best for the position for many reasons.
ObamaVP
I do not want to see Hilary Clinton as VP. The VP is more of a ceremonial position than it was in the past due to top security and medical advancement. When was the last time the VP actually became president? We cannot have two leaders it only leads to problems. Hilary better serves the country in the Senate or perhaps a cabinet position. I would like to see Obama pick someone who has alot of experience to offset the impression that Obama may be lacking. The person also needs to be free of scandal. If Obama is going to continue to be the candidate of "change" I am hoping the VP has some kind of deversity, something different from the past. Perhaps jewish, or female, or disabled.........you get the picture.
VP PICK IS????????
I think it will be Retired General Wesley Clark.
SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!
But I am voting for McCain, so we will see if my guess is right.
