I think Obama has pretty much locked up the Democratic nomination. The battle in the general will be great to watch unfold, but I don't know if the Republicans can dismiss themselves far enough from Bush and the War to get a third term. This is why Clinton is still fighting so hard for the nomination. She won't become Vice President either becuase Michelle Obama and Clinton don't get on at all.

Don't get me started with politics, I am like the eveready bunny!!!!

impossible - the constitution prevents him from holding any office greater than Governor

Arnie can not be president due to him not being born in USA, he was born in Austria.

Also, Smashbro: Obama is winning the Democratic Nomination race, McCain has won the Republican Nomination Race.

Remember when Bill Clinton was president, running around with monica lewinskey when USA were in war.

No More Clinton, we need change, OBAMA!!!

You could take that argument, but you can also take the argument that the US is the most influential country in the world and we need to take an interest in our allies and partners.

Well it effects us in australia because of our relationship, import and export and finance industry.

Clint Eastwood is not a candidate.

Well I haven't been following the US elections for the same reason I mentioned above. But from what little I've seen on American talk shows, Obama seems to be the better candidate.

But still...Clint Eastwood should win. NAY...he WILL win.

Obama seems to be pretty anti-war, which I like.
In the end, I'm not really fussed who is the eventual president, but I am hoping, for the sake of the families and children of the troops who are currently serving their duties, that they will catch a break.

getting past Clintons blewclintsky thing... he was a great president... and the blewclintsky things doesnt bother me any at all... and america is in a world of hurt now thanks to bush... it will take alot, and i do mean ALOT to clean up the messes made... experience i feel will be key to this clean up process... experience i feel obama doesnt have sadly... he could make it in and do a great job, but then he could make it in and fold under the great pressure that will be imposed upon him... if he can handle it, great, but otherwise america is gonna be hurt even more... and yes that will effect the world as well.. is it worth the risk? no one knows much about obama enuff to even guesstimate how he might be... and from some of the ways he has handled his own progress in the elections, i am worried...

Clinton has the strong backing of someone who knows the ropes, and i feel she would more than handle the job... she will be different than Bill in how she does things, but that experience will be invaluable to getting america back on it's feet...

with what all is coming, the war is the least of our worries... and obama i feel and fear will not be up to the challenge...

I don't regard the US as our ally, rather I regard us as theirs. Until such time as we require assistance and they give it without prevarication then I will maintain that view.

Also, they may have been the most influential country in the world, but my guess is there will be a significant shift in that regard back towards China, Russia and potentially the EU.

Obama may not be taking money directly from lobbying firms, but he sure doesn't mind people related to those firms giving him a helping hand.

I don't want to start any crazy political arguments but I'm so against Obama. I feel like he will say or do anything just to please the people. I may agree with some of his views but I just don't trust him as a person. I can't see myself voting for someone who is all about his church one minute but then disowns it the next when bad things are publicized about it. I'll probably end up voting McCain.

Oh come on, it is because he is black

tbh, if I were a US citizen I would vote McCain as well.
