Why shouldn't I vote for Obama??
Before you all "jump" me, hear me out.
I know that as Christians, we all usually vote Republican because of our values. We HAVE a Republican in office and homosexual marriage/rights is moving right along...abortions haven't stopped. So obviously putting a Republican in the office doesn't change those issues.
Why shouldn't I vote for Barak? He's a fresh voice, people are comparing him to JFK...I realisticly do not believe Huck's going to do anything...I don't know if I want McCain as President, nor do I think he'll win....
So we have two choices Hillary or Barak.........why shouldn't I vote for Barak????

Re: Why shouldn't I vote for Obama??
My opinion is it is best not to vote...but of course few think like I do...fewer yet have lived in countries such as I have lived in...I saw enough Muslims in the Philippines and there are lots of them in Brazil. Why would you vote as a christian for a man that does not believe the Bible to be God´s word?

and I have nothing against Muslims...I would go anyday to be a missionary among them if God called but their values are very different than ours.

How does having a fresh voice make him a good choice? How does comparing him to JFK make him a good candidate? And as for McCain not winning....are you suggesting not voting for him simply because you don't think he can win?
On the abortion/homosexual issue...I think a lot don't vote for Democrats because they are pro abortion etc...simply because to vote for them is passive approval of such things. I don't think anyone really believes voting Republican is going to mean a reversal of Roe vs Wade automatically....the president can't do anything about that. The best they can try to do is get in a conservative judge in the supreme court....the problem there is we got too many democrats in congress and the senate that fight every judicial nomination including choices for attorney general.
It seems now that many republicans are pro abortion the issue is about the war, military and fiscal conservativism....that last one seems to be a moot issue with the current President

Re: Why shouldn't I vote for Obama??
I don't believe Obama is a Muslim....What difference would it make since there's already been a Senator elected that is Muslim...why would he need to hide it? And why would he be hiding it since all these years before he even decided to go into politics.
On the other hand I don't doubt there might be some racism there given the church he goes to

I think some of the links from that page have been removed. I don't doubt that the man would be more sympathetic to Islamic people than Hillary or McCain. I am not happy with voting with any of the three. When Huckabee is eliminated, there is not much of a choice. If I vote I will vote for McCain very unwillingly.

Re: Why shouldn't I vote for Obama??
CP,
his church in Chicago pledges allegience to Africa.
this same church performs same sex cermemonies for gays.
trinity united church of christ - check out the beliefs of this denominations and tell me they are christian
his mother,in a radio interview slipped and told that Obama was baptized(or whatever their initiation is) as a muslim when he was a child. he went to catholic school for one year and uses that as a cover.
