I went to Google, and I typed in "Why I'm not voting for Obama", and I came up with a lot more links to why everybody else in their uncle is voting for him. When I typed in "Don't vote for Obama", I came up with (at least) two different view points.

This person at Vox said just over a year ago: "Don't Vote For Obama, White People Like Him". While this guy? from The Guillotine recently said "Don’t vote for Obama, he’s black."

1.) I think we're seeing a trend indicating that everybody in their uncle is now voting for Obama. gay voters, women voters, even Latino voters.

2.) He isn't running as a "black" man, or a "white" man. He's simply Barack Obama- Somebody who is seemingly charming the pants off people.

It's interesting how we have African American women (such as Oprah) who are being put into question for voting race instead of gender. (But is it about either?) She said :

"'You know, after Iowa, there were some women who had the nerve to say to me, 'How could you? How could you?'" she said, with mock indignation. "'You're a traitor to your gender.'"

The crowd booed.

"Yes, that's how I feel," she said, adding a little later, "I say, I am not a traitor. No, I'm not a traitor. I'm just following my own truth, and that truth has led me to Barack Obama.'"


Ok, so that's good advice. Follow your own truth. Look at the websites of your favorite candidate and see what they really stand for. We might never agree with everything they have to say, but what about most? I'm curious how many are following other people's truths? What about those super delegates who are following the votes, and are being swayed by their constituents? What about looking at what your favorite actress has to say about them? "I'll do whatever he says to do," actress Halle Berry said to the Philadelphia Daily News. "I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear." LOL
