Electing Obama

I intend to Elect senator Barack Obama, not because of his religious affiliation, but because of his plans for being the next leader of this country. While it would be nice to see someone Black in the oval office that shouldn't be the only reason, either. Black people can be just as corrupt when in power. Just look at Dicatator Amin, when he ruled Uganda. I saw his speech a few days ago, and news program on BET comparing some of his policies to Mcains' . While Obama doesn't have a lot of experience to make a good president , his policies on public education, which we need a seriously, healthcare, and others make him a better choice in my eyes, The last thing we need is another " Bush" in office.
