Persona and Substance

I enjoy watching Senator
Barack Obama speaking.
He has a smooth delivery
system when compared to
President George Bush.
Bush reminds me of the
speakers in College that
didn't quite know what to
say unless they were reading
the words from a paper in
front of them.
Substance wise I'm not sure
how Senator Obama stands on
issues that are important
to voters.  His views on
those issues will be more
clearly revealed as his
campaign progresses.
As for President Bush
I agreed with him that
we had to pursue bin Laden
into Afghanistan, but as
of today, bin Laden is
still on the loose,
and the failures in Iraq
continue to cook
Bush's goose.

a very political one.

I am not sure that American is ready for a non-white or a non-man--president yet.

I give my best wish to Obama...a fresh air.

nice poem.

Thanks for responding Drauntz...
I seriously doubt that I would vote for Obama...I believe that he is good for the Democratic Party, a fresh face on the scene to stir up excitement, but much too inexperienced to be considered a viable candidate...Bush had his opportunity and in my opinion failed miserably, by abandoning the chastening of bin Laden, to shift his focus to Saddam.  Reminds me much of the major blunder that Hitler made while failing in Great Britian, he turned his focus upon Russia...a decision that greatly helping Great Britian and its allies, but badly hurt Hitler, and in fact he never recovered from this blunder...James
