I can think of plenty of reasons to vote for Barack Obama for president! First and maybe most importantly, he...uh...well listen, he...uh...let me tell you, he seems to... ummm...oh yes, he...uh...has a nice smile? And then there's the indesputible fact that he was affiliated with a wonderful.. er, I mean a great... ummmm... he belonged to just a beautiful...well, a great...he belonged to a church to which he eventually had to denounce the minister's hate statements against this country.

Now, let's get to the most important reason as to why we should all vote for Obama. He wants...no, I mean he would like to...he's always talking about how he's going to make things, no that's not it...he says he's going to change things? That's it! He's going to change things, like...well...he thinks that...he feels that we...I believe he said that we should all get free medical, and a chicken in every pot(or was it a roast). That's what he said, free medical to be paid by...to be paid for with...he intends on raising money for this by...raising taxes on everyone? Yes, that's it, he said he will raise taxes, he doesn't feel that taxes are high enough to pay for all the free stuff he wants to give us yet. We have a long way to go before they are high enough to pay for...uh..I mean...to fund our free medical?

Wee, this is tough work, but Barack said when things get tough, the tough just go. Or was that Elmer Fudd who said that? Anyway, Barack should get credit for that one, and it's a damn good reason to vote for him. Oh yeah, a damn good one. Now, let's continue with the reasons to vote for Obama, because believe me, there are plenty, I'm just warming up. I can remember watching Obama during the playing of our National Anthem, and he crossed his...no, he unfolded his.. now wait a minute, he crossed his hand over his...no, that was Hillary who crossed her hand over her heart. Obama, he crossed his fingers...no that wasn't it.. oh that's right, he stood there very nonchalantly with his hands in front of him with his fingers crossed. Yes ,that's it. Now there's a good reason to vote for Obama.

Well, if that doesn't convince you to vote for Barack Obama instead of a patriot like John McCain, then I guess maybe you won't vote for Obama at all. There, I said it. And I said it with such passion, too. I'm a passionate speaker, just like Barack. Maybe I should have run? No, he has a much better smile then I do. Oh well. Let's all just vote!
