Obama for my Mamma

So I've been watching the news lately and as all of you have probably noticed it all seems to center around the impending election. Lets just get this out there, I am a democrat and I beleive that we need some one new in office, someone that can and will change things for the better. Change our health care our social security and really change the situation in Iraq. I beleive that Senater Obama will do this. I think the polls have shown that a vast majority of people beleive the same thing.
My issue is that there has been alot of Democrats that have come out and said that if it comes down to Obama and McCain they will vote for McCain regardless of what political party they belong to or wether or not they share his views on pollicy. Their reason... Because he is black. Really people are we still in that place?
There has also been an overwhelming amount fraud mail being sent out claiming that Obama is Muslim. Not only is that not true but 1. since when did we incorporate religion and state? 2. There is nothing wrong with being muslim there are extremist in every religion.
I still can't believe that people beleive everything they hear. The emails are not true. Stop buying into what closed minded people tell you!
I hope that when election day comes people will forget what race or sex our candidates are and simply vote for the best person for the job.
