As a matter of fact, I feel Bush is too liberal in some of the things he supports such as his "guest worker" program - what the heck is that all about? Either you enter the country legally like others before you or you are in violation of the law. He just wants to change the law to suit his views. There is nothing wrong with the immigration system now other than that it is not enforced. I also feel he is not fiscally conservative enough. I do swing towards the liberal side on stem cell research and abortion rights. I supported John McCain and Wes Clark (either would have been fine with me), not John Kerry and would still be fine with McCain. In general I hate the system we have now wherein I have to declare a party to vote in the primary.
It appears that Obama - in name, at least - appears to be Christian. Or at least he's a member of a United Church of Christ. But then again, so is TristanRobin - so what the heck does that mean, other than that the UCC has sick liars attending...

Anywhoooo... Do you think Obama would be a good candidate, and if so, why? I'm not joking or digging. Just curious how you see him as a candidate.
