Hillary really is losing it. By it I mean her mind, the small amount of respect many people have left for her, the country, her future in politics, etc. Obama won North Carolina last night by a wide margin. Hillary barely won Indiana. I mean barely. If you ask her though, she’s still the favorite [...]

I’ve been noticing a lot of similarities between Congressman Matt Santos from TV’s The West Wing and Senator Barack Obama and have been wanting to write about it. The similarities between the two candidates are uncanny. They both have to overcome race issues, take on prominent Democratic frontrunners, and a moderate Republican. Even in the [...]

Last night we saw Barack Obama win his 9th and 10th consecutive victories in the race to become the Democratic candidate for President. Hawaii and Wisconsin both chose Mr. Obama over Hillary Clinton. These are no long insignificant victories, as Mrs. Clinton’s campaign was saying after Mr. Obama’s South Carolina win. She’s got some serious [...]

If Hillary Clinton wins the Democratic Party’s nomination without winning the popular vote, I will not vote in the Presidential election. People who know me know that I’m deeply interested in politics and think that voting is one of the most important things you can do, but I will not vote for someone who is [...]

Today is Lincoln’s birthday. In celebration of today, what not donate a little change for someone who can bring about real change? I am, of course, talking about Barack Obama. Throw him a couple Lincolns (a $5 bill and a penny for $5.01, or multiples thereof) and help take back the White House. Please, donate [...]

With all Democratic precincts reporting, Obama had the support of 38 percent of voters, compared to 30 percent for John Edwards and 29 percent for Hillary Clinton. “The numbers tell us this was a debate between change and experience, and change won,” said CNN political analyst Bill Schneider.

I just took a test to see who my ideal candidate would be, meaning who represents my interests best. No surprise here. Barack Obama represents what I believe in. We have an 84% similarity rating. The two we disagreed on were gay rights and medical marijuana, which I am more liberal on than him. Nowhere [...]

I am supporting Barack Obama’s run for the Democratic nominee for President of the United States of America. Why? In short, I like his stance on the issues, I think he is a man of integrity, and I respect him. I also think he is a better choice than Hillary. You may notice the meter [...]
