I have issues with our current President. However, I think his actions concerning the global financial market meltdown are wise.

This is a FAR CRY from how I looked at it before.

I wasn't wrong then and I'm not wrong now to say,

"Thank you Mr. President, for your decisiveness in a time of crisis."

His actions as of late will prove to be the among the brightest spots of his Administration-- ranking high with his commitment to AIDS research and affordable AIDS treatments for sub-sahara Africa and his "No Child Left Behind Act. I haven't heard anyone else say this yet-- these are my own original musings.


I have been rethinking my support for Sen. Obama.

This is NOT because Sen. McCain is the better candidate in my book, because I'm not sure that he is, honestly.

I am equally unsure as to whether electing Sen. Obama is really in the best interest of our country. I am inclined to say, "No" for moral reasons.

As of right now, I'm inclined to just not vote.

1399, I have a great deal of respect for you for this very reason.

NOT that you are rethinking your position on Obama, but because you have always been open and honest, and you are not afraid to rethink your positions on things. Your transparency is refreshing.

Kudos to you, my friend!
