This is starting to seem too much like the Ron Paul thread, more like an admiration society than a political discussion thread.
This is a big, very wealthy country with many, many talented well educated people. The republican and two democratice presidential frontrunners all strike me as very flawed, controversial individuals.
Obama's Rezko relationship and financial "arrangements" with Rezko, along with his advocacy of preemptive military strikes and increasing the US military ground forces by 90,000 personnel, do not impress me.
I see a growing sentiment on this forum that is much more emotionally than detail driven, in favor of Obama, coming from people who I usually am in agreement with. My advice is to slow down. Take Obama and Clinton with a grain of salt, and much reluctance. Be resigned to one of them winning the november election, not creaming your jeans over the sheer possibility.
Just my two cents.
