I would Like to see Obama win. When Clinton was in power something that he did led to the problems with the World Trade centre I guess.?

Really curious to know, as this November election is a very important election, has enormous affect on global policies. How do some of you feel about the Obama and Hillary Clinton? I don't think anybody really want another Republican in the White House this time around.

In reply to Chris Summerfield:
I feel so outraged... that in so many parts of Europe some societies are emerging by feeding and growing on their personal intolerant believes and non humanistic values as to feel bold enough to attack the freedoms and equal rights granted by legislation to women, gays and lesbians ..... by misusing our democratic system and cleverly infiltrating local politics under the banner of ' equality ' for them alone of course !! ..... and not to mention their dislike for the hard fought freedom of speech !! .... People, artists, writers and local politicians seem to care so little that the trend of their intolerance is alarmingly growing and it seems to start becoming kind of ' normal ' and ironically politically correct in order to keep the peace and please those full of intolerance and hate ! ....
What can we do to make our politicians understand that we do not want to reverse time and go back to the dark ages when people used to live in fear of persecution and when woman had to be totally submissive or otherwise !!.... Why doesn't the artist community raise up in protest ?.. Why are we so afraid to defend our hard fought values ? Why are we letting this evil trend continue to grow at our own expenses and with our politicians tacit approval ? ... Does anyone have any good ideas on how to fight back ........ without being called a racist ? ... because it is the obvious cliche misappropriated by those who cannot or have the intellect to understand that the world IS NOT !!.. ONE DIMENSIONAL ! .... and that ' LIVE and LET LIVE 'is a great good !

Unfortunasltly politicians are usually the biggest bigots see what happened in the name of god from people in power over the last 10 years.
Re interpretation and twisting biblical information for there own cause, and getting very rich in the process, at the expense and the lives, and in some cases the very innocent of people.
Anyone in power needs to lead by example not by aggression which then gets out of control.
We are in a new world, with this very media that we are communicating to each other with; it is breaking down cultural boundaries like never before which makes us all richer, It is also a threat to people who want to control populations, this is causing a lot of the problems in today’s world at the moment.
I agree very much with what you say. An open and understanding population is a healthy one.
A famous American photographer who served in Vietnam once said that Politicians and law don’t understand, understanding and love, but know aggression and anger.
American people at the moment can make or break our world, it is important that any new leader is a person of understanding passion and peace, cultural diversity with out preaching to others, as much as humanly possible.
We should never allow the sort of people in power that we have had over the last ten years again.
Regards. Chris.
Peace Love and Understanding to all.
See the world with open eyes.
