Why do you support Obama?

On what issues, and specifically what about Obama's Plans for reform do you support?

I am 23, own my own small business, have a BA in Economics, and am about to enter law school. I came from a lower middle class home, and have been mowing lawns since I was 11 years old. I now have my own commercial lawn service with 9 employees. I just cannot see any reason why I should vote for Obama. I think his Health Care system will bankrupt the economy, his windfall profits act will have a serious impact on the cost of gas prices, also If my taxes were to increase on my profits for my business I would have to let 3-4 people go, thus making them jobless. I think if anything we need to think back to the pioneers who built this country without virtually any goverment assistance, its time that we as Americans help ourselves.

I have to clarify, with the rise in the cost of gasoline, my operating expenses have greatly increased, and several of my clients have told me to hold off on cutting their lawn, or putting their lawn on a 10 day rotation instead of a 7 day. That in turn is the reason why I will have to downsize.

Because McCain is just like Bush and Bush has destroyed the economy and driven up Oil prices so his considerable oil stocks will rise in value

I support Obama because I support tough diplomacy before military force. If we were not in this horrible war that costs billions a month, our economy would not be bankrupt. I strongly disagree with McCain's position on women's rights and FMLA. I struggle to find a single good reason to vote for McCain.

notice how all the obama supporters dont give u an actual answer they just say hes going to change politics, give us hope, hes inspiring, hes a good speaker, or hes the best candidate but if they had common sense theyd think hes a fraud. and chemna ur an idiot GWB cant drive up oil prices. asia's technology advances in the past years are driving it up because theyre building more factories and ppl are having more cars in these areas. its called supply and demand.

People who think he's great do so because 1) he is black and 2) he danced on Ellen show.
They don't do ANY research. They think he will end the war in Iraq (He voted FOR the continuation) and not only that...on June 5th he went to his first Bilderberg Conference. If that doesn't upset you, you need to look it up. Unreal. Are we in trouble??? We sure are. This country is a sinking ship and we can't patch the leaks.

DON'T VOTE FOR A PRESIDENT THEY ALL ARE BAD HILARY OBAMA AND MCCAIN ARE ALL BAD.

I don't support him. He's the creation of the dnc and the news media. What do we really know about him other than what they want us to know.

I don't support Senator Obama--he doesn't support me!

I think that Obama is the change we need. Our health care system in a travesty, and needs to be changed, socialized health care has flourished in many other countries and can do so here. He believes in education, making it affordable for adults to not only obtain higher education, but start with the kids making after school programs and day care more affordable. He believes in job training, reforming welfare so that it teaches new skills and isn't just a crutch, so that those who utilize it can do like the pioneers you mentioned. He understands that this country relies to heavily on fuel controlled by corrupt corporations and plans on creating new jobs for those four employees you will be "forced" to fire to find and alternative fuel that the rest of the world will benefit from. And the taxes that will be raised will effect that top 1% of americans that Bush so generously gave the tax cuts to, These people can afford it.

Because Sen. Obama is the best candidate. Sen. Obama will make a great President. Finally we can all forget Bush. That sounds happy doesn't it.
