It looks like Barack Obama has picked up another endorsement namely the leaders of Iran
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3611840,00.html and apparently is Hamas' choice as well
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/128028 . Most of the world wants Obama to win (except Israel who prefer McCain-Palin 2-1. So the "citizen of the world" Obama is doing quite well and is even already making plans for a big bash in Chicago to celebrate his victory election night
http://cbs2chicago.com/local/obama.event.grant.2.846677.html. We still get to vote so I thought in the issue of fairness and since the Fairness Doctrine
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=78833 will return because Democrats are not happy with all the major newspapers, every major network, CNN and MSNBC on their side
http://www.ldsmag.com/ideas/081017light.html http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/10/22/study_coverage_of_mccain_much.html, I thought I'd give some reasons to vote for Obama as articulated or implied by his supporters.
1.) He stands for Hope and Change and Progress. McCain apparently has come out against all three
2.) He went to Harvard Law and was the head of the Law Review
3.) He was a community organizer just like ACORN.
4.) He is black and yet articulate (implied and I think completely racist. I know tons of articulate black people who are even qualified but aren't running for President)
5.) He is not George Bush
6.) He is not a Republican
7.) He took a stance against the Iraq war in the Illinois State Legislature which carried no legal weight. It also took moral courage as he represented part of Chicago that at best could be described as a Berkeley suburb and who were vehemently against the war, any war that the US is or may fight in the future. This is a neighborhood when a 60's radical terrorist like Ayers can seem like a respectable member of the community.
8.) He is young and looks good on camera.
9.) He can really deliver a speech off a teleprompter

10.) He has the ability to sit down and work with people who completely agree with him. He voted with his party over 95% of the time.
Did I miss anything? I am very interested in your input. I would hate to slight O Mighty One. Please send me your suggestions.
