On this site and many others, I have challenged Obama supporters to produce arguments in support of their candidate and his policies. To no surprise, I have encountered very little in the way of rational argument, but instead a lot of emotional ranting, or clear evidence that the responder has not done very much research, and cannot in fact defend their choice. So, let's hear it Obama supporters - why should I vote for him?
btw, I'm voting independent this year because I cannot stand either of them, but if I had to choose between the two of them, it would come down to the "lesser of two evils".

Dear AngelEyez,
That's a response I've heard quite a bit - "vote for Obama because he's not John McCain". And, that's a very true statement, but it isn't really explanatory. It's like saying I should prefer purple because it's not green. That said, I totally respect your independent thinking!
have you ever had a longing to really relive the thrill of 1929 up close.
he is the only one talking about pulling out of bagdad. wars cost money we are going broke fast.

What does that mean? Vote for Obama because he's not Sarah Palin? Again, don't tell me why I shouldn't vote for McCain / Palin - someone out there, please tell me why I SHOULD vote for Obama.

I highly doubt that anyone listening to this campaign for the past 2 years(GE especially) has not heard enough out of each candidate to decide whose views are closer to theirs. There are no undecideds at this point, just undeclareds.
So forgive me if I express doubt that there's any reason you would support Obama no matter what anyone says.
