Vote NO to Obama

I really don't care if he is a Muslim or not; the fact is, he has side stepped the issue ever since he became a candidate for the presidency. What concerns me is that this election is a "race" election. It is going to be decided based on the person's skin color rather than his experience, knowledge, wisdom, and unselfishness. We have swung very far in the opposite direction of what this country was founded on and it should be alarming to the millions of people of this great nation; however, this is not the case.

Obama is NOT the man for this country, nor should he even hold office as a US Senator. I would even say that McCain is not the best choice either, but is the sensible one. Barack Obama is a socialist, plain and simple.... If you, who work for a living, enjoy giving away your money in taxes to the people of this great nation who would rather collect a check than work for their keep, then Barack Obama is the man for you. If, however, you are a person who wants to achieve more out of your life by setting goals, working hard and achieving more than you had ever dreamed, then vote for anyone other than B. Obama.

I'm sure that most of you reading this will think that I am a racist who just does not want to see a colored man in the White House. I respect that opinion, but I am an American first and foremost who loves this country and wants it to continue to be the best nation in the world.
