The things I love about Obama are many. He's actually known poverty, especially in his early formative years. He was mostly raised by a single mother. Yes, he was fed with food stamps and yes that makes a difference in how I look at people. Obama stayed POSITIVE. He didn't belittle the people he was running against - he would talk about how his plan was different and how it would help most people. Obama's plans are balanced with a nod toward long term plans rather than instant gratification.

From my understanding Obama was not exactly raised in poverty. The quote was, "For example, I was going to a fancy prep school, and my mother was on food stamps while she was getting her Ph.D."
Not that what he endured when he was three would really have a lasting effect on our presidential policy.....
