Who will be the next President of the United States

Hello Phoenix! I was surprisedto see someone from Canada being so interested in the U.S.s politics. I am a die hard Rebublican and I do not want to see Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama leading this country. With that said, I am not happy at all with any of the Republican candidates running. I do know that with Bushs term over, we will need someone who will bring this country closer together and stop splitting us further and further apart.

I hope Obama. Hillary has had more hype surrounding her and those with a lot of hype don't always put out as much as we expect. That and he values education and will help it more. (I am getting a degree in Elementary Ed so education is a big thing for me.)

If I had anything to do with it (which I don't, I'm from the UK, but if I did) I would want Obama to win. I've been watching his videos on YouTube and he seems to be the only one who has his head securely fixed to his body. He has the right mix of decent maturaty and understanding of the young to appeal to everyone, inside and outside of the US. I know a lot of Americans might not give a damn what the rest of the world thinks of the US but I think he would pull the countries ratings up immensely, after what is probably an all time low right now. His policies are very impressive and he seems to believe in what he says, not just to please then conveniently forget like most other politicians.

First off I must point out that the decision of whom to vote for as the next President of the US should not be based on either gender or race. The decision should be an informed one based on the individual candidate's beleifs and stance on the important issues facing our country today. And, I must admit that with both a woman and a black man trying for the Democratic Nomination, I am afraid that alot of people will make their decision based on gender and race. That would not be a good thing. I was actually leaning toward voting for Hillary - based on experience and some of the things I had heard her say; however, once I actually started researching her and her beliefs and actions I began to loose both trust and faith in her. As such, she is no longer an option for me. I have found several articles and information showing that she changes her stance on the issues depending on what the voters want to hear at the time - this leads me to believe that she will follow her own agenda if she gets elected, and like most politicians forget her campaign promises and what the people actually want. This is not good. Obama could actually be a good choice. He is truely a "people person" and would also be "new blood" in the political world. He does not have a lot of experience as of yet - this could be both good and bad. Good because he is likely not to be as jaded as more experienced politicians would be, but also bad because it could cause him to make costly mistakes and make it much more difficult for him to accomplish anything. Also his lack of experience does not give the American people much background information on WHAT exactly he has accomplished as a politician up to this point. I will agree that voting the republicans back into office would probably be a large mistake, and I have not been looking to hard at the republican choices. I am still leaning toward a democrat in office, but if it comes to having to vote for Hillary or a Republican, I will be forced to vote Republican. I hope it does not come down to this.

The big election in America will affect the whole world. Whatever decisions Americans will be somewhat the world's future. I hope Americans will decide for the interests of the world.

i think Hilary clinton should win, cause women has just as much right as the men and "no defense" but men dont think right all the time, i think we need a woman in the office for awhile to fix all the problems we have and hopefully turn the economy around. Vote For Clinton
