It's all over the news. I thought it was ironic to have made it to aljazeera. What do you fellows think? Would you vote for her and do you think she would make a good leader?

I would've added a poll, but i couldn't find the option.

Yeah, she's not going to win though, everyone is for Obama. There are also other canidates as well joining.

In all truth I'll vote for her if she makes it through the primaries. I think she has the experience and plus i'm really curious as to whether or not a woman in the whitehouse will bring in a sense of discretion to the hill.

To me Obama is a joke. He just made it to his senators seat just a few years back. That just doesn't seem like enough experience to run the whitehouse. Remember what happened when everyone wanted someone new and fresh in the whitehouse, we got Bush.

I don't like that much of Hillary Clinton, she seems to be opportunistic gambler who makes anything to make herself electable. Sure, Clinton propably has enough experience but not enough fresh visions or original ideas. If John McCain will run for presidency, I would vote for him or Rudy Giuliani if he would run. If the Republican canditate would be Rice, then I would vote for Clinton.

What comes to Obama: even though he would win Democratic primaries, I don't think he will become a president: no offence, but I don't think that enough Americans are ready for black president yet. Perhaps I'm wrong though and I hope I am.

I love what I heard on the radio. Someone said "I think America is ready for a female president." Someone calls in and responds. "Yeah, we just aren't ready for a total bitch."

Sums up my feelings.

I'd vote for the Obama-rama. Then, we would be the Obama-nation.

Personally, I think Obama would be a refreshing change to the old, white and uptight guys we're used to. A lot of this is because he's essentially coming from nowhere, which in one sense is good and in another bad. He doesn't blindly support the Democrats, and is more open to new ideas. At the same time he brings some kinda youth and energy to the political scene.

He also seems to know a good deal about speaking to people. Given that he's coming from nowhere, a lot more people than I expected are supporting him.

On the other hand Hillary's a bitch. Ten bucks says she'll give head to a male secretary just to spite Billy.

Actually – Obama may have had the preverbal nail put in his political coffin by the Clinton camp exposing his radical Muslim background. The media isn’t covering it much (no surprise there). But you can read here:

I would take a 4 more years of bush before I took a day of Hillary. Obama seems like a good candidate since he is willing to work with people of opposing political ideologies. He is also not a total liberal or a complete conserative.

I would love to see a libertarian in the oval office, but there are only a handfull of libertarians out there.

I've read that a majority of democrats don't want her in office at all, so I don't really think she'll make it past the primaries, but then, voters are easily swayed by the media.

We suffer so, don't we?

I'm republican but I think a lot of women and a few guys would think that Hillary will give the country something new...refreshing sort of thing. I probably don't make much sense here.
