Barack Obama is our candidate to beat John McCain. Every poll shows that his decision on Iraq was the correct decision and that is the person I want to answer that important White House phone. We need the person who shows restraint and calmness in a very hectic world.
WE need Barack to show us how to calm down and listen to others and get along. We are ready for a different kind of politics- where we can learn to disagree without being disagreeable." That is a direct quote from Barack Obama.
Yes, words do matter- as a mother I struggle over which words to use with my children, so I know that words can be mightier than the sword.
I want my President to know what the Constitution is all about. Barack has taught the Constitution and will protect it.
That's a President I can believe in.

As a woman it has been many years of struggle to win equal rights. Well, we do have some equality but when it oomes to financial difficulty, it is alwsys a woman who is stuck and can never get out of financial burdens. Whether through divorce, or domestic abuse, or scandalous loan techniques =women are still taken advantage of. Because we have to raise our children we are at the mercy of the banking and financial industry. If you are married and your husband is wonderful and pays all the bills, and does not abuse you, then as a woman,all is wonderful, but if you are one of the many other women who have suffered in this life, you are being slowly beaten up not only by your abusive husband, but also by the credit card companies that do not understand hardship, if you have a difficult time, then all of your credit card interest rates just go up to 39 % instead of the 10 % that you signed up for., Then you are charged every month thereafter a $39.00 fee each month for being over your limit, and it is the interest that put you over the limit.
This should be illegal, but right now it is not. Until someone fights the credit card companies women will still be drowning in debt and not able to be equal.
Who will take this on and restore the America that I want my children to have?
We are one America and we will not allow the same old Washington games to be played- we are hurting too much to sit back and let the Senator from New York ruin our party. We must fight now for Barack.
I for one am tired ot the same tired old attack machine being played over and over again. I want a government that solves problems. Do not be distracted. Do not listen to the news media, pay attention to what each candidate actually says. If one is telling you to be hopeful, the other is trying to scare you, you better vote for the candidate who is offering hope. That is Bill Clinton's advice back when he was running for President.
Let's take him up on that advice and vote for Senator Obama
I choose Hope
--- Yes We Can Hope for a better tomorrow ----
Thanks Wyoming- I am calling on all Oregonian Democrats to pledge their support for Barack. as soon as you receive your ballot, it should be soon, (we do mail in ballots)
Yes Florida, mail in ballots do work!
Vote for Barack and personally take your ballot to the election headquarters and ask for your ballot to be counted. If we get Barack a lead in Oregon asap, that will tell the rest of the states to get out and vote early for Barack.. and get this over with.
Yes We Can
Go Oregon
After so many years of Democrats and Republicans fighting, I really can not even have a civil discussion with my own father over politics. I am ready for Barack to change how all of us see each other. Let's all fight for his vision. It is the only way we can restore freedom to our country. The freedom "to disagree without being disagreeable" like Barack says.
Our country used to be a leader in civil rights and now we are seen all over the world as a country who will torture and use politics to do it.The ends justifies the means is what the Nazis used to say. What a scary thought. We need someone who will speak for the middle class, and get rid of the healh insurance industry's hands on our health decisions.
Last but not least, Barack taught Constitutional law and will fight for our Constitution and he will obey the constitution. If he will go one more step and hold the current administration accountable, then I know our constitution will be restored.
Hope is the only way to a brighter tomorrow, Let's start fighting today! Get a sign, put up a bumper sticker, wear a lapel pin, whatever you can do will help.
