I should not have read this thread because there are some things that were said that really are not taken to themselves personally.
How many people knew McCain and were thrilled for him enough to vote.
They saw the same things we saw with Obama and made their choice based on what meant the most to their personal value system. (which is how it is supposed to be)
How many people chose McCain early on based on race or gender(fearing a woman being the democratic cadidate)
And how many churches I have been part of that tried to innocently convince me of who would be the best president based on abortion and gay rights.
If those issues are why you want to vote, then cool, go that way. But each of us knows little about our candidates anyway and none of us knows exactly how life will go when there is a president because we are not future predictors. We dont know what will happen. We can only go with what we feel will be best.
I want my open minded- christian- new age witch -"whatever people call me" religious freedoms!!!!!!!!
My spiritual life is engrained in everything I do.
and that IS WHY I VOTED OBAMA. besides many other reasons.
A government that pushes agenda and hides behind the cloak of their religion to get the people to support them for religious reasons bugs the heck outta me and 4 more years of that would have, i felt taken away MY PERSONAL religious freedom.
i feel I have hope now
