Obama in a nutshell

[JoyJuice]

Although I personally was eyeing Edwards, this video from a Obama supporter

makes sounds arguments.

Impressive speaker. Definitely not your average idiot on the street interview.

I can't see video,
But I picture Austin Powers in a nutshell.

This is the typical 'groupie' response one gets from his supporters. Most know nothing about his specifics nor do they care. Just that Oprah is hyping him is enough for them. Scarry.

It's always scary when people vote by playing "follow the leader". When did we see that happen last? Oh, I remember, something about Bush ... LOL.

First, you misspelled "scary."

Second, you may not agree with what the young man was saying, but if you listen to the video you'll hear that he has clearly thought through his reasons for supporting Obama. He's not some Oprah dittohead and he's not just steering the interview back toward canned talking points. I think he deserves a lot of credit for being an informed voter--and I'd say that even if his conclusions were different from mine. Just because we don't all agree with one another doesn't mean we can't recognize a thoughtful perspective when we hear it.

I can't wait till all my hard work in Iraq and all my fallen comrades goes in vain so that we can invade a country with over a 100 million Muslims because Obama has no clue.

That was an amazingly insightful interview for someone just kinda ambushing the kid. He took a few seconds every now and then, but you could tell he knew why he was supporting Obama.

Agreed. It's refreshing to see people who seem to vote based on what the candidates stand for and who are actually informed. Not like the masses who base their vote on whether or not someone has a D or R next to their name; on in the case of Dems voting based solely on race or color. Just as you say, we don't have to agree to come to the same conclusions about a candidate, but it makes america stronger having an informed electorate.

Can't get the video. But I am curious as to why people support Obama.

You just read my mind.

Which country are we planning to invade under Obama?
