Barack Obama
Related: About this forumDamn right! We got hope!
This is the guy who makes me believe that things can and will get better in this country. Unlike the doom and gloom guys on the other side. This is the guy that makes me feel as though he is talking about an inclusive America. Unlike the other side, who seems to be talking to and about an exclusive America... Where you have to believe in a certain God, and be in love with someone from the opposite sex.
See, the difference between President Obama and his republican opponents is this: President Obama believes that America's best days are ahead of us, and the republicans believe that America's best days are behind us. Which is why they'd like to take the country back.. back to the 1950's. We look back to learn from past mistakes, but in order to progress we must look forward.
Check out President Obama's awesome speech to United Auto Workers. It really was a joy to watch.

(22,541 posts)speech. I thought I saw him get a little emotional in one part. His voice got a little scratchy and he blinked a couple of times. Amazing that some people think he's cold and has no feelings, etc. I've always seen a man who loves this country deeply.
