Sen. Obama鈥檚 statement on U.S.-Armenia relations is available on the official campaign website at: http://www.barackobama.com/2008/01/19/ba...

As always, the ANCA welcomes feedback on its service to the Armenian American community. Please forward your thoughts and suggestions about the 2008 Presidential election by email to anca@anca.org.

Edit:

to tell you all the truth Bush said it the same first time around. He got 540 vote from our side of family and friends he did not kept his promise.
so i am not sure.

He calls for passing because Bush calls for not passing, his policy is anti-Bush.
Because Bush was not successful and not popular, he thinks by opposing him at every aspect will gain popularity.
Armenian Genocide Resolution should pass, because that is a fact.
But I can't accept a tragedy of my nation become a tool for gaining vote.
This is neither respect for Armenians nor for truth and fact.

I would welcome it if it was in favor of truth, in order to persuade Turkey face the past, the fact and move into better relationships with Armenians, but I'm sorry that it's in favor of themselves.
It's hard to believe Obama be less liar than Bush. Bush also said similar things, didn't he...?
It's hard to believe US...

To be honest I know nothing of the Armenian Genocide issue... but I like Barack Obama.

I just hope the money he gets from war contractors doesn't corrupt him. Hilary gets more by the way.

Isnt that resolution suppost to be really unpopular overseas?

Barack is a democrat
and its no secret that
Dem's want this resolution
past, but the republicans have
the strong hold for what is past
in Congress. If he becomes
president (which is doubtful) he
may keep his promise, they all
do keep one or two.
Republicans want strong allies and the
democrats want votes.
strong vs weak- strong wins in overtime.

@Paula, i disagree, Barack only
wants the Armenian vote, democrats
do not think past that. I think he cares
about the war, it is the American people
who want out of Iraq, who ever gives the
American people what they want will get
the vote. Just like my Armenian friend said
she will vote for him just because he will
do what she wants. Its time Americans
vote for the person that can best lead this
country not the person who does what we
want him to do.

Barack is a Democrat who opposes the war on terror, especially the war in Iraq.

Turkey is an ally of the U.S. in the war on Iraq, because the U.S. relies on Turkey's agreeing to the U.S. miliatry flights over Turkey's airspace to get into Iraq.

Barack wants to p**s-off Turkey, so that Turkey will cease allowing U.S. flights over Turkey's airspace, thereby harming the U.S.'s ability to wage the Iraq war.

So, his motives are purely political (and he does NOT care how much those actions harm the U.S.).

I just got that email too!!!

First of all, everyone should be signed up with the ANCA!
Secondly, he's got my vote, just for that!

I think that the person i would trust most to pass the resolution is Edwards, just because of his relationship with Nataline's family and his exposure to our culture... Sometimes i think Clinton is too much of a politician.. She's very sly. You can never be sure what you hear is what you're gonna get. But at the same time, i think she's an etremely strong woman.. a very strong person overall. Obama sometimes seems to nice for the job.. But hey, maybe that's what we need. I do like him, and between him and hillary, i'd probably want him to win.. especially b/c of his support for us.
It's time the genocide is recognized.

I dunno konw y i have this feeling that this is an election trick?
