my in the us today talking many thing about obama, but the fact is from what he saying, it is believed that what comes from a guy's mouth is also what the heart desire and what the heart desired is what man does. as people claimed that obama is "talk but not the deeds" dont believe that. i personally believe that obama will deliver all that he promising. that fact is he will not be the sole running of the country, so please let us give him any support that he needs to become a president of the great usa

Its time for honest leadership. I went to an Obama rally and heard him say, "I am not a perfect person and I won't be a perfect President. But I will always be honest". The Un-Politician. It is what we need. Even if he turns out to be something very different than what he portrays himself to be, I am willing to take the risk. Can't be much worse than what we have.

American has it's next President. All the dirt in the world didn't deter the people from voting. The Clintons know politics. Obama knows the people. UNITY is our glue for a better country. The Clintons divide. Obama is an Everyman. There is no one hat for him. He is We or US. He is inclusive of all races and statuses. YES WE CAN! Thank America for it's maturity in getting over the petty senseless attack on Mr. Obama over the last weeks. He rose above it all! A fresh new America is on it's way. No more Clintons. No more Bushes. This is our turn, the People, to be represented wholly.

We need Obama!

As an Asian American a capable minority such as Mr Barack Obama has my vote. After over 200 years the state of union deserve a person with vision focus on other people and not that of personal gain.

See, the reason why Obama does not care to flawlessly execute conditioned responses like hand-on-heart or whatever, or yell patriotic songs, is because he is trying to change the idea of what it means to be patriotic in America, change it from fanatical, knee-jerk obedience to whoever is in power, to a pursuit of sound policy.
How can you not laugh when Bush puts his hand on his heart, all the while sending some Americans to die, spying on others, degrading those who are not of their own socio-economic group to the status of second-class citizens, selling the country to corporate interest and throwing public money into the furnace of the military industrial complex?
Some people- many people, actually, in this country, think that an exploitative-sacrificial relationship with the state- the notion that all citizens must be ready to give all they have to the government on a whim, futher backed by an unflinching loyalty to the symbols of state power, is what defines patriotism. I certainly don't, and it seems Obama is with me on this one.

This tells the tale. Via internet and actual convesations about issues and real concerns. It is Barak Obama all the way. The media and other shadowy forces (who can and do "fix" election results) want that inhuman lying scum H Clinton as some sort of "Big Sister" president. As for Mr 100 year war McCain he is an old fool whom the media pampers. He will send your children to die for nothing; just as bush and Clinton have. We must come together. all people of all races. We mustwork together. That's the message. One America.
I too voted for Obama. This is the only chance the USA has. If He is not the nominee IT WILL BE ALL OVER!

I have voted in every election since my eighteenth Birthday! I now reside in Chapel Hill N.C. but my roots are from Long Island NY! I'm a resilent democrat who has become far more involved in politics as the years pass! The public opinion is that we will get the best of both worlds with Hillary because of Jefferson! Whom of which did a phenominal job in office! I voted for him because He was the best candidate in my personal opinion! He did not let me down my vote counted for something! Obama is here in 08'! He is clearly the best candidate and His campaign is monumental with insurmountable odds stacked against Him! If you don't vote for Obama you need your head examined! We live in a country that cares more about animals than they do for the homeless! I feel that a change is well overdue! Obama! Obama!Obama! Get used to it He is going to win!

Richard, there is some information you can find here: http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/anthem.asp regarding the things you might have heard. While it is true that he did not put his hand over his heart during the National Anthem at an Iowa get together, he does put his hand over his heart in other instances - I can't say that I do it every time too; but it does not make me any less patriotic as I sing that song louder than anything!
But the information that was presented to you was misleading at best - he has no problem saying the Pledge of Allegiance. He has said the Pledge of Allegiance in front of Congress, so what was presented to you was not the whole truth.
