BTW, the whole "I don't know if enough white folk are gonna vote for a black guy" thing is a bit overblown in my opinion. Enough white folk voted for him to become the Democratic nominee, right?

My main issues are the economy and the war in Iraq.

I tend to favor Obama because as a middle class American I think that it is time to end the days of rewarding the upper class with tax breaks and make them pay their fare share like the rest of us. I am tired of seeing companies rewared with tax breaks, and then turn around and ship jobs over seas. I am tired of rich people not paying social security taxes on all of their income. I am tired of overpaid CEO's ruining company after company. It is time to make those who have been more fortunate pay their fair share. No more, no less.

As for the war in Iraq, I have been against it from day 1 because I felt that we had no justification for invading and that we had not finished our business in Afghanistan. As a former member of the military, it makes me sad to see our troops needlessly put in harms way. If they have to fight, then let them fight for something worth fighting for in Afghanistan.
