I’ve been reading articles about Obama and how people don’t like him because of his paster, many are saying he must believe in the same things? But the truth is he doesn’t have to. Most of my friends growing up were drug addicts and sex crazed teens. I wasn’t I’m still not that way, but because that was who I grew up around you would think that would be the case.

Not everyone follows what the adults around them when they children do. Most learn from the mistakes, ideas and values of these people and decide for themselves what to believe. At least in a normal world situation. Is his paster a very outspoken black man who may believe that everyone is against black people. Maybe, but that doesn’t mean Obama is that way.

I think what bothers me most about this is not that I now support Obama and I’m worried he won’t win the nomination, but that I’m so tired of people judging people because of who they knew when they were a kid or who that talk to now. How do you know they didn’t see something in that person and want to help them become a better person.

I’m still very torn, but my thinking is also starting to change. Right now I think we need a strong president here in the US that is not only a good leader but someone who can speak to the people and make them love this country again. I’m just not seeing that with Hillary anymore.

I expected things to get ugly but I have talked with may Clinton supporters who have started to change their minds after everything that has been going on. You can read more about it on CNN Of course the Michigan primary is way over and won’t count anyway, but what I’m wondering is if she does get the nomination will these people move over to the Republican side, not that there is anything really wrong with it, that is their choice.

As much as I would love to see a women president, I just don’t know if she is the right person anymore. I guess I really shouldn’t worry about it until we know who is running for each party, I can’t vote between them now anyway!
