Default The upcoming US presidential election

We know that the Republican candidate is going to be McCain, but who the Democrat candidate is going to be is less clear (although Obama is significantly closer to it than Clinton). Who would you prefer to win the upcoming presidential election in America?

I refuse to believe that Obama will be voted by mainstream America.He's a great speaker I agree and he has an appeal about him but can u see those hick Yanks voting for a black man?

Are we sure that the US foreign policy depends from the President ...
..I think that the US President is only a puttet ...and the real formers of US foreign policy are the "shadows" we don't see but are there costantly for at least 30 years now !

Well Obama is promising to pull out of Iraq, so I'd imagine they have some impact on foreign policy.

After eight years of the neo-liberal Republicans f*ing up the economy (both of the USA and of the world), I wouldn't be surprised if the Democrats (especially with Hillary on the ticket as Vice-President) started to look appealing to even the rednecks in the bible belt.
