Thats why we need a revolution!! and I don't care if its Ron Paul or whomever, just as long as things change from where we are and where we are headed. However, I do like Obama and I feel comfortable with him more than any other canidate "with a chance" thats out there.Crowtherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12433674417605911515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642419311081698439.post-41195577888060776302008-02-11T13:36:00.000-07:002008-02-11T13:36:00.000-07:00Hey Jake!

I too consider myself a moderate conservative - leaning more towards the Republican ticket due to moral issues. But I am not a registered member of either party. And, although I lean Republican, I have voted for a Democratic congressman. However, I do not think I can ever vote for a Democratic president. Why? Well, when we vote for a president we are essentially giving one political party complete control of the executive branch of government - that is a lot of power! And because of my moral qualms with the Democratic ideology, I cannot in good faith empower them with this highest office in the land. Regardless of the qualifications of the individual candidate, he/she still answers to his/her respective party. So as long as the Democratic party champions a pro-choice, redefine the family, remove God from state affairs platform, they will forfeit my vote for the presidential office.Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05687518846880126941noreply@blogger.com
