Barak Obama
I haven't listened to the hype i don't really care for Barack. I did look up some stuff...
Points we agree on:
-In September 2006, Obama voted for the Secure Fence Act, authorizing
the construction of 700 miles (1,100 km) of fencing along the United
States–Mexico border.
-"Marshalling a global effort" to secure, destroy, and stop the spread of
weapons of mass destruction.
-Expansion of the United States Armed Forces "by adding 65,000 soldiers
to the Army and 27,000 Marines",
-Obama stated that he had not ruled out military action against Iran
-Supports easing the punishments for possession of small amounts of marijuana.
points i don't agree with:
-Barack Obama opposes legalization of marijuana
-Death tax
-Supported granting drivers' licenses to illegal immigrants.
-Obama voted against the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, saying "I think
that most Americans recognize that this is a profoundly difficult issue for
the women and families who make these decisions.
-As state legislator in Illinois, Obama supported banning the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic firearms, increasing state restrictions on the purchase and possession of firearms and requiring manufacturers to provide child-safety locks with firearms. He supported a ban on the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns. He sponsored a bill in 2000 limiting handgun purchases to one per month. He voted against a 2004 measure that allowed self-defense as an affirmative defense to those charged with violating local laws making it otherwise unlawful for such persons to possess firearms
-Obama supports embryonic stem cell research and was a co-sponsor of the 2005 Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act
I really don't think he's the Antichrist
