I listen to what some of the Republicans have to say and its so self centered. They only think whats best for people like themselves. People who are rich and conservative. I see jealousy and no smarts about them. We need a President thats going to look after and help the average man. A person cannot be objective about a situation unless that person has experience the situation. The high gas prices, people losing their homes and no good jobs. Republicans blaming people and lenders for the foreclosure problem and forgetting that those same people have invested in paying taxes in this country. They need a return on their investment which is a good paying job in the United States, gas to get to work and enough of this Bush administartion that got us in this mess. Things will get more worse if we dont change the problem at hand. McCain is the same problem. Voting for McCain is voting for Bush. How crazy is that? Gos bless American and Barack Obama.

Obama's tour in Middle-East and Europe has proven the opposite. The truth ought to be said, recognized, and acknowledged. The truth is that the man (Obama) is a great leader, a leader loved and reverred worldwide, and a leader whose authority effects (impacts on) people in the world as if the distinct countries of the world have become the provinces the USA. The people of the world considers Obama not as the next president of the USA, but rather as their next president.

You should listen to her today. The most ardent supporter of Barak Obama I've ever heard. Barak OBAMA the next president of these United States of America. What an exciting clip it was to watch Obama in Berlin and in France. What a change to see thousands of europeans screaming for our next president Barak Obama. We need change and we need it now. We need a president who can unify our country with the western nations again. We need a president who is not afraid to air his view points. We need a president who can say, I said we needed to be in Afganestan not Iraq, and we need to be in Afganestan now, with more troops, now, and we need to get out of Iraq as soon as possible. We need a president, Barak Obama, who is educated, brilliant, articulate, and yet humorous and caring and a loving husband and father at the same time.

The European press who preceded the American press didn't promote Obama. It's the American press the Republicans are talking about. But the Germans have a real interest in the guy demonstrating that interest to the tune of 200,000 which is more than Reagan or Kennedy when they talked to the Germans as presidents. 83% of the Japanese and 70% of Australians follow the American presidential campaign because Obama is a flashpoint and interesting to the world. The press coverage isn't igniting this interest. The appearance and demeanor of Obama is. I don't know if he will make it to the Presidency. I'm uncertain as to what is good for the nation. What seems clear to me is that international interest in Obama is genuine and seems not to be predicated on the press.

Not about Obama or McCain, both good men, but about the awareness level of some of our voters. All one has to do to gage the number of closed-minded people is read some of the negative comments here. It seems some only know the bumper stickers and one-liners. From that, they decide the future of our country. The voters scare me more than the candidates. Obama has a lot to offer. Open up and try to find out why he's creating such a stir. It's not just fancy speeches. Roanike Rapids, NC It's my turn to complain.

What a suck-up puff piece! The media continues to run stories like this, and then has the nerve to say it is "objective." What nonsense! Earlier today one CNN anchor (I believe it was Colleen McEdwards) noted that Obama had visited eight countries in eight days, and then felt obligated to add, "Incredible!" Well, maybe it was a tough job for the pilots and the security staff, but I doubt the wonder-boy carried his own luggage. (He probably didn't even pick out his own neckties... leaving that for a staffer and a focus group.) I know you folks in the news are drooling at the thought of putting the most liberal (if not socialist) candidate in history into the White House, but could you at least stop drooling on Obama directly? it's starting to look pretty pathetic - and don't be surprised if it ends up working against him. (I'm thinking of selling bumper stickers that read, "Annoy the media, vote for McCain!") Of course, we conservatives (left without a candidate at all) will have the last laugh, after Obama screws things up so badly that he will become the most hated President in history, prompting the election of a conservative Congress in 2010. At that point, the media will have even more sour faces than they had when Bush beat Gore and Kerry. This is news? What a suck-up puff piece!
