That is, without invoking ‘change’ or in any other way making the case in the negative (i.e., voting against Bush, McCain, etc.). I know many reasons for voting against him based on who he is and what he stands for, but I do not know a single reason for anyone to actually vote for him on that basis. That’s not entirely true: I should say that I don’t know a single reason for anyone that does not identify themselves as a socialist to vote for him. I mean that literally, not as a slur.
Anyone? Okay, he’s black and that would be historic (no, I don’t think that it would in any way help race relations), but that’s only an accident of birth in any case. Any reason based on what he stands for, not what he stands against, which would be acceptable to an average person in middle America? I really am curious.
Nobody knows what Obama stands for. Change!
What the hell is that? You ask people issue by issue
and they don’t know what he stands for.
Very sad if he wins on “change” only.
Besides, he is black and white.
Surely you know what he stands for by now?
Have you not heard his tax plans?
Have you not heard his plans to help fund healthcare and fix education?
Only someone who is not listening hears McCain.
McCain has been running a dreadful campaign – based not only on lies but on fear.
A candidate should not need only fear to bring them up.
His plans, and what he says he stands for, are not the same now as they were a year ago (or even a few weeks ago). So how can anyone actually know what an Obama presidency would give us? Even Obama admits — sometimes — that his plans are too expensive and either won’t be implement or will be scaled back (I can give numerous references if you like). So even if you take his plans at face value, you don’t know what you will be getting. All we have to judge his intentions by are his words — and if you believe everything that any candidate has to say, on either side in any election, I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell you.
His own surrogates cannot name anything substantive he has accomplished. All we are able to find out about his past indicates that, at a minimum, he is far more liberal than he now claims, and may even subscribe to socialist views.
And as for ‘fear,’ you must not be listening either. What is Obama’s message but fear of Bush? I’m not saying that McCain isn’t playing off fear of Obama’s inexperience, but if, by ‘fear,’ you mean that you have bought the spin about ‘racism,’ then I have any even more expensive bridge I’d like to sell you. Obama and his surrogates are the only ones bringing race into this election, and they do so at every opportunity and in response to any criticism of Obama whatsoever.
But all this is beside the point: you have failed to make a case for Obama. Your entire argument is: you should know what Obama is about, McCain sucks. I specifically stated that I want someone to make a case for Obama that doesn’t rely on contrasting him with anyone else. I guess I’ll continue waiting.
Barack Obama is the best democrat president in my opinion. he makes the best judgment and foreign policies.. ~
