What I find most interesting and amazing about the media coverage is how many cite Excitement among Young People and International Support as reasons Obama would make a great President.

Wait a second here.

The same generation who has made Paris Hilton a superstar, made reality tv what it is and loves Jerry Springer is the best people to look for to chose a President?

International support is a reason to vote for someone?

Voting for someone because the international community likes him is like having the opposing manager make out the Cubs lineup.

Not to mention them calling him a great leader when the man has never lead anything.

Thanks for the welcome here everyone! Love it here and am completely addicted.

Seriously. A president should follow the Constitution and be able to lead and make decisions.

It’s a joke that people would vote based on popularity (both in the US and internationally) and his ability to “connect” with young people. Heck I’m young (and black) and I hate the guy. Well his policies anyway. I’m sure he’s nice.

Welcome to FR.

a. “Young people” will forget to vote. Something else of great importance will come up for them that day.

b. Who gives a rip what the REST of the world thinks? They don’t vote in our elections. Well, legally, that is.

c. Thank you for playing.
