Obama for president

I hope Obama makes it past the primaries.

If we talk point-by-point then Kucinich is the guy I should vote for. With Obama, there are some serious differences between his and my opinions. But I think that the person who should get that position is more than his talking points.

Obama seems to have a pretty amazing personality (as noted by several columnists who've met and followed him around for the past 4-8 years). He's obviously a clever person, well educated, aware of the world around him more than any other candidate this year. He treats everyone with the respect they deserve. Many have said that he's the kind of politicians that can communicate with 'the other side' in not only a constructive way, but in a way that makes Americans feel proud of what our political system could be.

Here is a New Yorker article about Obama which should make you feel proud too.
