islezeus,

I'm a white, 49 yo male. I don't care if Obama a Black or White, male or female, Christian, Muslim, or Buddhist. He's intelligent, articulate, clear, and seemingly honest.  He speaks for the common man. He has my vote.

OMG. That's was so emotional for me, I almost teared-up. I'm Black and was nto expecting this, at all. Barack could possible win this nomination. I just hope this isn't a trick by the Republicans ACTING as Democrats and voting for a Black man, knowing full well that the racists in this country will not vote for him. I hope I et to see a Black president in this generation... this can really change te country for the better!

you have another choice. Theres Clinton

Obabma McCain and the libertarian canidate(the third party). which will be chosen at then end of may.look at their views if your not strongly on a side. the may have the answer your looking for. you may not have heard of them much because republicans and democrats have gained so much power and money, its hard for a third party to speak.

I would vote for a woman for president, if she had progressive political views. I will not vote for a triangulating Joe Lieberman wannabe of any gender, race, religion, or ethnicity. The Democratic Party is supposed to stand up for the people against the economic royalists. It's not supposed to join them in their union busting activities. It's also not supposed to hit the fear button card-- that's the beginning of fascism. Fear leads to fascism.

Clinton has fought hard for change and delivered it even when it wasn't popular or getting her headlines. We need a president who will work hard for us when the going gets tough, not just give a speech and head to Camp David for a round of golf - like Bush does. Obama looks to me like a catch-phrase candidate. Promises without a track record to believe in are a little empty to me.

Hillary is the only candidate I see as a real hope for our future.

I nearly cried when i say this. The reason is that Sam Cooke ( the singer) was my dad's favorite singer and this was his favorite song. His life was very similar to this song:

1. he grew up in South carolina ( during segregation) and moved at the age of 16 to Detroit(runs like the river)

2. He had a stroke and he would always tell me that he would be dying soon

3. His would help out his brothers but they would take from him after his death they tried taking my belongings in the will
