Alexandra Ciardullo said in her comment that Obama said that it is ok for these 24 states to restrict partial birth abortion.
Question:
If Obama becomes president, would he still let those 24 states still leave that as a law?
Ekin said that Obama believes we must be careful getting out of Iraq as we were careless getting in. Barak Obama said that if he gets elected as president, he will immediately give his Secretary of Defense and military commanders a new mission in Iraq, ending the war. More than 1,000 American troops have died and for that reason Obama is fully committed to end this war. Obama was against ths war from the beginning and he had the courage to speak against the war. Barack Obama said that ending this war is the right thing to do for national security and will make the lives of U.S citizens safer.
Question:Will Obama stop the war in Iraq right away or will he wait a year or two?
Jackie Situ sated that Obama would help middle class families by giving them $1,000 a year. He also stated that Obama would help 1 million Americans from losing their jobs.
Obama might say that for his campaign, but would he really go through with his plan if he was elected? What if this is just a way to win the election?
Ekin Ozkal said in her comment that if elected president, Obama will appoint his secretary of defense to end the Iraq war and be careful coming out. My question is that after the troops have come out, what will happen to the cities and people that support democracy in Iraq? Also, what will Obama do about the terrorists?
Beatrice M. stated that if this happened to the Democratic candidate, fewer evangelicals would be so forgiving.
Question: If this happened to Obama daughter fewer evangelicals will forgive, is it because they are "black".
Catherine Chan said that McCain wants to continued the war in Iraq and leave the troops there to fight. Also she said that he wants to bring more troops to Iraq to fight.
Does McCain want to kill and injure more people, by leaving them in Iraq to fight?
Ekin Ozkal stated that Obama believes we must be careful getting out of Iraq as we were careless getting in. One reason that we got in is because of a terrorist attack(9/11).
Question: If another terrorist attack happens, will Obama stop the war or not?
Karina Royzen said that...
Obama states that America will be a place where families that where seprated by immigration would be reunited. Obama also states that skillfull foreign-born workers should come to America for work.
Question: when u say "skillfull workers" what kind if skills do u mean, like in what jobs or work is needed?
Dakota said that Barack Obama will create a 21th century military. He also said that invest in building up special operation forces, civil affairs, foreign language training, cultural awareness and gathering more efficient military intelligence. Also, he says he will lower the military's morale, and expand the size of the army by 65,000 and the Marines by 27,000 to help the soldiers retain and re-equip between deployments.
My Question is, Where is Obama going to get the money for building up special operation forces, civil affairs, foreign language training, cultural awareness and gathering more efficient military intelligence. Also it will take time to get an army of 65,000 and the marine of 27,000.
BeatriceM. said in her comment that the evangelicals had forgiven Sarah Palin's daughter but said fewer evangelicals would forgive as they were to the republican party to the democratic party if this happened to them.
Question: Why would fewer evangelicals forgive the democratic party if this happened to them? Is it because of their race?
Alexandra Ciardullo wrote that Barack Obama said as a U.S. Senator in 2004 that he supports a woman's right to choose abortion, and in April 2007, that he trusts women to make their own decisions on partial birth abortion.
So my question is:
Would Obama forget or deny partial birth abortion?
Adam Alhamdani said in his comment that Barack Obama says that he wants to supply 2 billion dollars or more to help Iraq expand refugee services and help the Iraq citizens find sanctuary in their country . Will they need refugee services if he plans to end the war or is that until the war ends?
Ekin Ozkal stated in her previous comment that, Barack Obama said that ending this war is the right thing to do for national security and will make the lives of U.S citizens safer.
Question: How will this make the lives of U.S. citizens safer, and how do you know that this might not endanger us?
Luis said in his comment that if Obama is elected, that he would lower the cost of health insurance to people that have lack of insurance.
Question:
If Obama becomes president, do you think he would do sumthing else as what he would do with the health care? For example: lower the price in gas for cars.
Beatrice Margolin said that Sarah Palin’s daughter is getting pregnant. The evangelicals claimed that they forgave her daughter and she could keep the child since she was a family member of a Democratic candidate.
Question:
Why is it such a big issue that Sarah Palin’s daughter couldn’t keep her child before?
“Ekin Ozkal believes that Barack Obama will immediately go about ending the war in Iraq in the interest of national security”. If we end the war in Iraq will we be fighting an unknown enemy in the United States?
Alex Ciardullo said in her comment that she agrees with Barack Obama that woman shouldn't be able to have an abortion unless they were victims of rape or incest. My question is what if the mother finds out that the baby she is carrying has a terrible birth defect? Do you think that would be another reason for a mother to abort her unborn child?
Catherine Chan said in her comment that John McCain wanted to continue the war in Iraq. Also John McCain wanted to add more troops.
Question:
Why would John McCain want to add more troops in Iraq if most of them is getting hurt and killed?
