I'm gonna work backwards on this one.
First, no it's not. Everyone who comes in contact with politics is pretty much tainted in some way, kind of the nature of the system and all that.
The next part I won't really address directly but, does a candidate really have to have a laundry list of qualifications to be able to be president? I realize that the whole dark horse thing hasn't ever been extremely successful or beneficial, and maybe I'm just blind with hope, but Obama comes off as a guy who cares and might actually do some good. But, see, that's what propaganda does to people. Of course, half the people I know think he's still a Muslim, so we'll see how Obama fares in front of the general public.
To be honest, I too want to know what all Obama stands for. He needs to address this, so that people can support what he stands for and not what is supposed via hearsay and rumor.
One of the reasons I'm leaning towards supporting him is that, out of all the people in politics today, he's the first one who seems to be even REMOTELY in touch with the general population at all. This is something that all of the politicians/parties need to address. It seems like the ideas of the parties are completely disconnected from the intentions of the people they represent. This incidentally goes the other way too, where people seem to support one party just because it's convenient and not because they really believe what that party spews.
Now I just need to work on my cohesiveness.
