If i were a US citizen, which im not, i would probably vote for Obama - He seems to be the candidate whose beliefs and values most closely relate to my own.

Umm... Romney is no longer running for the candidacy, looks like McCain is gonna win it, you should probably make sure you know who has a chance for running for president before you make a poll about it.

Alright, ima going to edit the poll, remove Romney, and add Ralph Nader (who has just announced he is running for Presidency)

EDIT: I also added McCain. There's no point adding Huckabee as there's no chance he'll win the Republican nomination

Canadian and under 18, so I can't vote. If I could I'd vote for Obama, because unlike every Republican he promotes Environmental things and isn't going to invade Iran on his first day. I prefer him to Hillary because of Economic and Environmental stuff as well.

Scarecrow63 · « **Reply #5 on:** February 24, 2008, 07:00:45 PM »

He doesn't want to waste his time in Iran, he wants to invade Pakistan instead

Also Canadian and a minor. I would also vote for Obama for basically the same reasons as Arb. Also I always feel like Clinton will try to eat me.

yea i know romney is not running but still. i couldn't think of anyone else at the time. and nader is running?

Let me put it this way......
I live in the US.
I think the US government has too much power.
Name the one candidate that CAN reduce the power of not only the President, but also Congress?

Enceladus · « **Reply #9 on:** February 24, 2008, 10:00:22 PM »

Lemme guess....Jesus, Osama bin Laden, Jean Chretien or Arthur Meighen.

I'm also part of the "can't vote"-croup as I'm not american but I'll say Obama too.He seems the best candidate to replace bush as a president.

i'd rather be in a country with too much power than one with not enough

too much power corrupts. it brings doom. it brings the end of countries.

Isamu · « **Reply #13 on:** February 25, 2008, 09:29:00 AM »

I did not think about that

vadereclipse · « **Reply #14 on:** February 25, 2008, 01:20:19 PM »

i'll say obama as well. although also non-american/minor, i dislike how clinton is trying to use bill clinton as a campaign-aid, and don't get me started on republicans. anti-abortion, pro-capital punishment, anti-stem cell research etcetc, no. plus, mccain sounds awful. i looked him up on wikipedia, and apparrently, he told a texas senator to "f**k off" for criticising one of his policies. do you really want a man like him in power of the USA?

Well, to be honest, if it were up to me, i would want someone who's honest and speaks his/her mind rather than someone who says one thing and means another, or just says what they think people want to hear.
