A common opinion I hear from people is that Obama is heavy on rhetoric but lacking in policy details. If some of your friends tell you this, I would suggest you direct them to the transcript from Barack's speech on Feb 13 at a GM plant in Wisconsin. The speech is very heavy on details about his economic plans - so heavy, in fact, that Barack had to ask the audience to "bear with me" because the speech didn't have as many "applause lines"!
Here is a link to the transcript:

Be sure to share this with your friends who are on the fence - there are lots of details and great ideas in here!
The following is the State of the Union address delivered by President George W. Bush on January 28, 2008. The event can be viewed at C-SPAN.
The transcript is below:
Yesterday, January 28, President George W. Bush gave his final State of the Union address of the presidency. If you missed the event, consult my other post dedicated to the address. Senator Barack Obama gave his reply to the address, and also appeared for an interview with Keith Olbermann on MSNBC. In addition, you may want to watch the Democratic response made by Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius.
The transcript of Senator Obama’s response is below:
Here is the transcript for those who were not able to watch the October 30 MSNBC-Pennsylvania Debate.
I took the time to type out a transcript of Michelle's Women For Obama speech for a hearing-impaired friend. I want to share it here for others if they also have such a need, or have dial-up internet connections like I do and don't often have the several hours it takes to download the 15-minute videos for viewing. It is a few pages so read it at your leisure. If the campaign site wishes to post it in the Obama For Women section, that would be wonderful!

Michelle Obama Speaking
…This is just a wonderful event. The more I go out, the more I realize that there is something going on. This is, this is a movement! This is something bigger than Barack Obama or Michelle Obama or anyone else in this room. Don’t you just feel it? It is amazing. (applause)
So, I am honored to be here. Over the last few months I’ve had an opportunity to take a few trips around the country, you may have read. Some of them, I’ve gone on with Barack. Most recently, I’ve been doing trips on my own. We try to take the girls when we can. The one thing people are most curious about of me, they really want to know particularly the women, and they want to know "how are you doing?" I mean, "how are you doing?" I’m like, "I know, I know". They really want to know how am I balancing this stuff. Balancing being a mother, a professional, a campaigner, a wife, a woman, right? And they want to know how have things changed for us over the course of this journey.
