I guess right now my support would go to Obama, but only because I think Hillary would be a bad president from what I've seen in debates and the only other candidate I really know anything else about is Rudy. And all I know about him is that he was mayor of NYC on 9/11...
Obama does have good points though.
I'm for eliminating the embargo of Cuba. It just seems pointless now that the Cold War is over. Obama has already said he was for lessening some of the restrictions regarding Cuba.
Also I think we need to get off of our high horses and talk to people. We need to stop acting like snobs and bullies and actually talk with our enemies before demanding things out of them. Obama said he would hold talks with leaders of some of our enemies like the president of Iran.
Other things on my mind not involving Obama (well not entirely)...
Iraq. We shouldn't have invaded them. BUT now that we're there, I feel we have to ATLEAST take care of Al Qaeda in Iraq before withdrawing. The government is weak, our withdrawal would allow the real Al Qaeda to set up a bigger presence there (or to establish one if they aren't already there). Al Qaeda in Iraq is responsible for the majority of the suicide bombings. Eliminate them, you should eliminate a good portion of the sectarian violence plaging Iraq because there would be fewer revenge killings (but I'm no expert on the topic, this is just based on my observations from reading the news). Like Obama said, we shouldn't be fighting a war to prevent a genocide, or else we should invade Sudan. But when the genocide is inadvertedly caused by us, I think we have a moral justification to stay and sort things out.
Iran. Ahmedinejad or whatever the hell his name is just needs to die. He keeps focusing on his military and killing our soldiers in Iraq, and now his people are suffering from a piss poor economy. All that oil Iran has, and yet he has to enforce an oil ration? Geez... We should enforce a passive regime change. Public opinion is turning against him, so we leave him alone to dig his own grave. However, there's the nuclear problem. An anti-west, pro-Islamist, anti-Israel country in possession of nuclear technology is a bad thing. I think we have to keep monitoring that, and if it looks like they have the bomb, attack the nuclear facilities. But that still may not be a good idea since their nuclear facilities are located close to large population centers and the current ones have the ability to relocate to other places if needed.
Afghanistan. We really need to be focusing more soldiers and resources on this war. I believe this war may be more important than the Iraq war, and we need to start taking care of things before our so called "allies" withdraw. With more men on the ground in Afghanistan, hopefully we wouldn't have to rely on airstrikes as much which would lower civilian casualties and friendly fire instances like what happened just a couple days ago when an American jet dropped a bomb on and killing three British soldiers. Instances like that can't be tolerated or accepted, and we have to do something to fix the problem.
Other over seas bases. We need to get rid of many of our over seas bases. Bases in all of these countries is pointless. Create maybe one single base in Europe that is jointly ran by all Nato members. That one base would respond to anything in Europe. Use those soldiers to replace National Guardsmen in Iraq and Afghanistan, then use those Guardsmen to guard the Mexican border against illegals.
Other. Outlaw abortion except under certain circumstances, outlaw stem cell research completely, and by God, get that damn border fence built.
